scriptures

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus

That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name.

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

Those who sow in tears,Shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping,Bearing seed for sowing,Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing,Bringing his sheaves with him.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God

There is one who scatters, yet increases more;And there is one who withholds more than is right,But it leads to poverty.

Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.

As the deer pants for the water brooks,So pants my soul for You, O God.My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.When shall I come and appear before God?

To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven
