With man this is impossible, but with God all
things are possible. Matthew 19:26

The Lord abhors dishonest scales, but accurate
weights are his delight. When pride comes, then
comes disgrace, but with humility comes
wisdom. The integrity of the upright guides
them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their
duplicity...The righteousness of the upright
delivers them, but the unfaithful are trapped by
evil desires...A man who lacks judgment derides
his neighbor, but a man of understanding holds
his tongue. Proverbs 11:1-12

Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his
might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye
may be able to stand against the wiles of the
Devil. Ephesians 6:10-11
_______________________________________
If I speak in the tongues of men and angels, but
have not love, I have become sounding brass or
a tinkling symbol.
And if I have prophecy and know all mysteries
and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to
remove mountains, but have not love, I am
nothing.
And if I dole out all my goods, and if I deliver my
body that I may boast but have not love, nothing
I am profited.
Love is long suffering,
love is kind,
it is not jealous,
love does not boast,
it is not inflated.
It is not discourteous,
it is not selfish,
it is not irritable,
it does not enumerate the evil.
It does not rejoice over the wrong, but rejoices
in the truth
It covers all things,
it has faith for all things,
it hopes in all things,
it endures in all things...
But now remains
faith, hope, love,
these three;
but the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13

Psalm 91
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will
rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my
fortress, my God, in whom I trust."
Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his feathers, and under
his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will
be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night, nor the
arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that
stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that
destroys at midday.
A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand
at your right hand, but it will not come near you.
You will only observe with your eyes and see the
punishment of the wicked.
If you make the Most High your dwelling—even
the LORD, who is my refuge - then no harm will
befall you, no disaster will come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up
in their hands, so that you will not strike your
foot against a stone.
You will tread upon the lion and the cobra; you
will trample the great lion and the serpent.
"Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will
rescue him; I will protect him, for he
acknowledges my name.
He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will
be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and
honor him.
With long life will I satisfy him and show him my
salvation."

Psalm 27
The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom
shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life—of whom
shall I be afraid?
When evil men advance against me to devour my
flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me,
they will stumble and fall.
Though an army besiege me, my heart will not
fear; though war break out against me, even
then will I be confident.
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the
days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the
LORD and to seek him in his temple.
For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in
his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his
tabernacle and set me high upon a rock.
Then my head will be exalted above the enemies
who surround me; at his tabernacle will I
sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make
music to the LORD.
Hear my voice when I call, O LORD; be merciful
to me and answer me.
My heart says of you, "Seek his face!" Your face,
LORD, I will seek.
Do not hide your face from me, do not turn your
servant away in anger; you have been my
helper. Do not reject me or forsake me, O God
my Savior.
Though my father and mother forsake me, the
LORD will receive me.
Teach me your way, O LORD; lead me in a
straight path because of my oppressors. Do not
turn me over to the desire of my foes, for false
witnesses rise up against me, breathing out
violence.
I am still confident of this: I will see the
goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and
wait for the LORD.

II Corinthians 5:17 NIV
______________________________________
Father in heaven, we are so inclined to be
concerned about the motives of others, while
overlooking our own. Search us, O God, and
know our hearts; try us, and know our thoughts;
and see if there is any wicked way in us, and
lead us in the way everlasting.
Psalm 139:23-24

Ephesians 6:7-8
______________________________________
...be content with what you have, because God
has said, Never will I leave you; never will I
forsake you. So we say with confidence, 'The
Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can
man do to me?'

Philippians 4:6-9
Do not be anxious about anything, but in
everything, by prayer and petition, with
thanksgiving, present your request to God. And
the peace of God, which transcends all
understanding, will guard your hearts and your
minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is
noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if
anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think
about such things. Whatever you have learned
or received or heard from me, or seen in me –
put it into practice. And the God of peace will be
with you.
