“I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Jesus, no turning back, no turning back.”
“Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee. I solemnly promise to observe and do all the commandments of the Lord and his rules and his statutes.” Heavenly Father, help me to walk by faith and not by sight all the days of my life, trusting you completely.
Your commands make me wiser than my enemies, for they are my constant guide. Psalm 119:98
“How sweet are Your words to my taste, sweeter than honey in my mouth; I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore, I hate every wrong path. Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path. I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws.” Help me Lord!
My brothers and sisters in Christ, let us continue holding on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and thereby shipwrecked their faith.
You have been taught the holy Scriptures from childhood, and they have given you the wisdom to receive the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ Jesus; therefore, continue in the things you have learned and firmly believed, since you know from whom you have learned them. 2 Timothy 3
Speak these things as you encourage, and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise you. Titus 2:15
“But as for you, speak the things that are consistent with sound doctrine. Hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it was taught, so that by sound teaching you will be able to encourage others and refute those who contradict God’s message.”
And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Colossians 3:17
If anyone speaks, he should speak as one conveying the words of God. If anyone serves, he should serve with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:11
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Colossians 3:12
As God’s chosen people, Scripture reminds us to “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And above all these, put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony; and let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Colossian 3:13-15
For God has not called us to impurity but in holiness. Therefore, anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human teaching but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you. 1 Thessalonians 4:7-8
“But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy; for it is written, Be holy, because I am holy. For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence with love.” Help us Lord!
A faithful witness will not lie but a false witness will utter lies. Proverb 14:15
Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who act faithfully are his delight. Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Do not listen to the words of the prophets who say to you, ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon,’ for they are prophesying lies to you. ‘For I have not sent them,’ declares the Lord. Jeremiah 27:14
For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So, it is no wonder that his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. In the end they will get the punishment their wicked deeds deserve. 2 Corinthians 11:13-15
“Indeed,” declares the Lord, “I am against those who prophesy false dreams they tell to lead My people astray with their reckless lies. It was not I who sent or commanded them, and they are of no benefit at all to these people,” declares the Lord. Jeremiah 23:32
“I did not send these prophets, yet they have run with their message; I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in My council, they would have proclaimed My words to My people and turned them back from their evil ways and evil deeds.”
