1 John 2:3-6 #TPT
Here’s how we can be sure that we’ve truly come to know God: if we keep his commands.
If someone claims, “I have come to know God by experience,” yet doesn’t keep God’s commands, he is a phony and the truth finds no place in him.
But the love of God will be perfected within the one who obeys God’s Word. We can be sure that we’ve truly come to live in intimacy with God,
not just by saying, “I am intimate with God,” but by walking in the footsteps of Jesus.

1 Corinthians 10:11-14 #TPT
All the tests they endured on their way through the wilderness are a symbolic picture, an example that provides us with a warning so that we can learn through what they experienced. For we live in a time when the purpose of all the ages past is now completing its goal within us.
So beware if you think it could never happen to you, lest your pride becomes your downfall.
We all experience times of testing, which is normal for every human being. But God will be faithful to you. He will screen and filter the severity, nature, and timing of every test or trial you face so that you can bear it. And each test is an opportunity to trust him more, for along with every trial God has provided for you a way of escape that will bring you out of it victoriously.
My cherished friends, keep on running far away from idolatry.

Ecclesiastes 4:9 & 10
9)Two are better than one because they have a more satisfying return for their labor; 10)for if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and does not have another to lift him up.
Philippians 3:18-21 #TPT
For there are many who live by different standards. As I’ve warned you many times (I weep as I write these words), they are enemies of the cross of the Anointed One and
doom awaits them. Their god has possessed them and made them mute. Their boast is in their shameful lifestyles and their minds are in the dirt.
But we are a colony of heaven on earth as we cling tightly to our life-giver, the Lord Jesus Christ,
who will transform our humble bodies and transfigure us into the identical likeness of his glorified body. And using his matchless power, he continually subdues everything to himself.

Philippians 4:19-20 #TPT
I am convinced that my God will fully satisfy every need you have, for I have seen the abundant riches of glory revealed to me through Jesus Christ!
And God our Father will receive all the glory and the honor throughout the eternity of eternities! Amen!

Proverbs 8:5-10 #TPT
Listen to me and you will be prudent and wise. For even the foolish and feeble can receive an understanding heart that will change their inner being.
The meaning of my words will release within you revelation for you to reign in life. My lyrics will empower you to live by what is right.
For everything I say is unquestionably true, and I refuse to endure the lies of lawlessness— my words will never lead you astray.
All the declarations of my mouth can be trusted; they contain no twisted logic or perversion of the truth.
All my words are clear and straightforward to everyone who possesses spiritual understanding. If you have an open mind, you will receive revelation-knowledge.
My wise correction is more valuable than silver or gold. The finest gold is nothing compared to the revelation-knowledge I can impart.”

Psalms 18:32-40 #TPT
God, you have wrapped me in power and made my way perfect.
Through you I ascend to the highest peaks to stand strong and secure in you.
You’ve trained me with the weapons of warfare-worship; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
You empower me for victory with your wraparound presence. Your power within makes me strong to subdue. By stooping down in gentleness, you made me great!
You’ve set me free, and now I’m standing complete, ready to fight some more!
I caught up with my enemies and conquered them and didn’t turn back until the war was won!
I smashed them to pieces and I finished them once and for all; they’re as good as dead.
You’ve placed your armor upon me and made my enemies bow low at my feet.
You’ve made them all turn tail and run, for through you I’ve destroyed them all!

John 17:1-4 #TPT
This is what Jesus prayed as he looked up into heaven, “Father, the time has come. Unveil the glorious splendor of your Son so that I will magnify your glory!
You have already given me authority over all people so that I may give the gift of eternal life to all those that you have given to me.
Eternal life means to know and experience you as the only true God, and to know and experience Jesus Christ, as the Son whom you have sent.
I have glorified you on the earth by faithfully doing everything you’ve told me to do.

Romans 8:25-28 #TPT
So because our hope is set on what is yet to be seen, we patiently keep on waiting for its fulfillment.
And in a similar way, the Holy Spirit takes hold of us in our human frailty to empower us in our weakness. For example, at times we don’t even know how to pray, or know the best things to ask for. But the Holy Spirit rises up within us to super-intercede on our behalf, pleading to God with emotional sighs too deep for words.
God, the searcher of the heart, knows fully our longings, yet he also understands the desires of the Spirit, because the Holy Spirit passionately pleads before God for us, his holy ones, in perfect harmony with God’s plan and our destiny.
So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together for good, for we are his lovers who have been called to fulfill his designed purpose.

Ephesians 2:8
8)For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God;

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;”

Psalms 27:11-14 #TPT
Now teach me, Yahweh, all about your ways and tell me what to do. Make it clear for me to understand, for I am surrounded by waiting enemies.
Don’t let them defeat me, Lord. You can’t let me fall into their clutches! They keep accusing me of things I’ve never done, breathing out violence against me.
Yet I believe with all my heart that I will see again your goodness, Yahweh, in the land of life eternal!
Here’s what I’ve learned through it all: Don’t give up; don’t be impatient; be entwined as one with the Lord. Be brave and courageous, and never lose hope. Yes, keep on waiting — for he will never disappoint you!

Revelation 19:11-16 #TPT
Then I saw heaven opened, and suddenly a white horse appeared. The name of the one riding it was Faithful and True, and with pure righteousness he judges and rides to battle.
He wore many regal crowns, and his eyes were flashing like flames of fire. He had a secret name inscribed on him that’s known only to himself.
He wore a robe dipped in blood, and his title is called the Word of God.
Following him on white horses were the armies of heaven, wearing white fine linen, pure and bright.
A sharp sword came from his mouth with which to conquer the nations, and he will shepherd them with an iron scepter. He will trample out the wine in the winepress of the wrath of God.
On his robe and on his thigh he had inscribed a name: King of kings and Lord of Lords.

Psalms 24:7-10 #TPT
So wake up, you living gateways! Lift up your heads, you doorways of eternity! Welcome the King of Glory, for he is about to come through you.
You ask, “Who is this King of Glory?” Yahweh, armed and ready for battle, Yahweh, invincible in every way!
So wake up, you living gateways, and rejoice! Fling wide, you eternal doors! Here he comes; the King of Glory is ready to come in.
You ask, “Who is this King of Glory?” He is Yahweh, armed and ready for battle, the Mighty One, the invincible commander of heaven’s hosts! Yes, he is the King of Glory! Pause in his presence

John 14:23-26 #TPT
Jesus replied, “Loving me empowers you to obey my word. And my Father will love you so deeply that we will come to you and make you our dwelling place.
But those who don’t love me will not obey my words. The Father did not send me to speak my own revelation, but the words of my Father.
I am telling you this while I am still with you.
But when the Father sends the Spirit of Holiness, the One like me who sets you free, he will teach you all things in my name. And he will inspire you to remember every word that I’ve told you.
