Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.

“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.”

Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!

And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.

Look among the nations, and see; wonder and be astounded. For I am doing a work in your days that you would not believe if told.

Oh sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvelous things! His right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.

Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.

And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.

Let not your heart envy sinners, but continue in the fear of the Lord all the day. Surely there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off.

Love the Lord, all you his saints! The Lord preserves the faithful but abundantly repays the one who acts in pride. Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord!

And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.

But as for me, I will look to the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.

Fear not, for you will not be ashamed; be not confounded, for you will not be disgraced; for you will forget the shame of your youth, and the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more.

Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!

For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.

But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.
