Because of God’s grace to me, I have laid the foundation like an expert builder. Now others are building on it. But whoever is building on this foundation must be very careful. 1 Corinthians 3:10
“My hope is built on nothing less, than Jesus Christ, my righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus’ name. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; all other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand.”
“Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. A good tree can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit.”
Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are vicious wolves. You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act. Matthew 7:15,16
When I read this passage in Matthew chapter seven, I had to laugh as it just reminded me of the old saying, “Sorry for Maga dog Maga dong turn round and bite you.” Whoever said the Bible does not have all the answers we need for our troubles today, tell them to meditate on it day and night.
Don’t waste what is holy on people who are unholy. Don’t throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you. Matthew 7:6
Do not fret over doers of evil; do not envy those who do wrong. Psalm 37:1
Don’t envy evil people or desire their company. For their hearts plot violence, and their words always stir up trouble. Proverbs 24:2
Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. Matthew 6:33
For the Lord God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right. Psalm 84:11
I delight to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart. Psalm 40:8
Blessed is the man who does not follow the advice of the wicked, nor stand around with sinners, nor join in with mockers, but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. Psalm 1
If you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Colossians 3:1
My brothers and sisters in Christ, ” Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. for you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.”
“The hand of the Lord is exalted, the hand of the Lord has triumphed!” Hallelujah!
“Up from the grave He arose, with a mighty triumph o’re His foes, he arose victorious from the dark domain and He lives forever with His saints to reign; He arose, He arose, hallelujah, Christ arose!”
“The day of resurrection! Earth, tell it out abroad; the Passover of gladness, the Passover of God. From death to life eternal, from earth unto the sky, our Christ hath brought us over, with hymns of victory.” Thank you, Lord!
“Now let the heavens be joyful! Let Earth the song begin! Let the round world keep triumph, and all that is therein! Let all things seen and unseen their notes in gladness blend, for Christ, the Lord hath risen, our joys that hath no end.” Thank you, Lord!
“Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! The strife is o’er, the battle done; the victory of life is won; the song of triumph has begun. Alleluia!”
“The three sad days are quickly sped; He rises glorious from the dead. All glory to our risen Head. Alleluia! The powers of death have done their worst, but Christ their legions has dispersed. Let shouts of holy joy outburst. Alleluia! Lord, by the stripes which wounded thee, from death’s dread sting thy servants free, that we may live and sing to thee. Alleluia!”
