There is nothing better for people to do than to eat, drink, and find satisfaction in their work.  I saw that even this comes from the hand of God.
(Ecclesiastes 2:24 -- GW)

Martin Luther's teaching on how to counter Satan’s deception about God’s relationship to the Christian:

36. “For the spirit and heart of man is not able to endure the thought of the wrath of God, as the devil represents and urges it. Therefore, whatever thoughts the devil awakens within us in temptation we should put away from us and cast out of our minds, so that we can see and hear nothing else than the kind, comforting word of the promise of Christ, and of the gracious will of the heavenly Father, who has given his own Son for us, as Christ, our dear Lord, declares in John iii. 16: ‘God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have everlasting life.’ Everything else, now, which the devil may suggest to us beyond this, that God the Father is reconciled to us, and graciously inclined to us, and merciful and powerful for the sake of his dear Son, we should cast out of our minds as wandering and unprofitable thoughts.”

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!  You pay a tenth of mint, dill, and cumin, and yet you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy, and faithfulness.  These things should have been done without neglecting the others.

“Therefore, everyone who hears what I say and obeys it will be like a wise person who built a house on rock.  Rain poured, and floods came.  Winds blew and beat against that house.  But it did not collapse, because its foundation was on rock.  Everyone who hears what I say but doesn’t obey it will be like a foolish person who built a house on sand.  Rain poured, and floods came.  Winds blew and struck that house.  It collapsed, and the result was a total disaster.”
(Matthew 7:24-27 -- GW)

He will put his angels in charge of you to protect you in all your ways.

If we say, “We aren’t sinful” we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us.  God is faithful and reliable. If we confess our sins, he forgives them and cleanses us from everything we’ve done wrong.  If we say, “We have never sinned,” we turn God into a liar and his Word is not in us.

(1 John 1:8-10 -- GW)

In th actual world, a churchless community a community where men have abandoned and scoff at or ignore their Christian duties, is a community on the rapid downgrade.

May God, the source of hope, fill you with joy and peace through your faith in him.  Then you will overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

All my hope is in Jesus
Thank God that yesterday's gone
All my sins are forgiven
I've been washed by the blood.

(By Crowder with Ed Cash)

Don’t have anything to do with godless myths that old women like to tell.  Rather, train yourself to live a godly life.  Training the body helps a little, but godly living helps in every way.  Godly living has the promise of life now and in the world to come.
(1 Timothy 4:7-8 -- GW)

Come back to the right point of view, and stop sinning.  Some people don’t know anything about God.  You should be ashamed of yourselves.

(1 Corinthians 15:34 -- GW)

Whenever I form clouds over the earth, a rainbow will appear in the clouds.  Then I will remember my promise to you and every living animal.  Never again will water become a flood to destroy all life.
(Genesis 9:14-15 -- GW)

Moses came down from Mount Sinai, carrying the two tablets with God’s words on them.  His face was shining from speaking with the Lord, but he didn’t know it.

Official motto of the USA as approved by Congress in 1956, but first appeared on one of our coins in 1864
. . . IN GOD WE TRUST. 

"O Lord my God, in You I put my trust; Save me from all those who persecute me; And deliver me, lest they tear me like a lion, rending me in pieces, while there is none to deliver."

(Psalm 7:1-2 – NKJV)

 

 

Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed.

(Psalm 34:5 -- ESV)

A person who gets rich dishonestly is like a partridge that hatches eggs it did not lay.  During his lifetime, he will lose his wealth.  In the end, he will be a godless fool.

(Jeremiah 17:11 -- GW)

You are light for the world.  A city cannot be hidden when it is located on a hill.  No one lights a lamp and puts it under a basket. Instead, everyone who lights a lamp puts it on a lamp stand.  Then its light shines on everyone in the house.  In the same way let your light shine in front of people.  Then they will see the good that you do and praise your Father in heaven.
(Mathew 5:14-16 -- GW)

There isn’t any temptation that you have experienced which is unusual for humans.  God, who faithfully keeps his promises, will not allow you to be tempted beyond your power to resist.  But when you are tempted, he will also give you the ability to endure the temptation as your way of escape.

(1 Corinthians 10:13 -- GW)

So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

(John 8:36 -- NIV)

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

(Francis Scott Key)

Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders.  In a loud voice they were saying:  "Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!"
