As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one. There is no one who understands, no one who seeks God. All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.” Romans 3:10-12
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Romans 3
I, the Lord, search the heart; I examine the mind to reward a man according to his way, by what his deeds deserve. Jeremiah 17:10
Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15
“Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.”
“Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness arrayed, and with your feet fitted with the readiness of the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”
“Standing on the promises of Christ, my King! Through eternal ages let His praises ring. Glory in the highest I will shout and sing, standing on the promises of God. Standing, standing, standing on the promises of God, my Savior; standing, standing, I’m standing on the promises of God.”
“Standing on the promises that cannot fail! When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail, by the living Word of God I shall prevail, I am standing on the promises of God.”
“My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and 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.” Lord, I am trusting you completely for everything.
“When darkness veils his lovely face, I rest on his unchanging grace; in every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil. His oath, his covenant, his blood, support me in the whelming flood; when all around my soul gives way, he then is all my hope and stay.” Thank you, Lord!
“Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before! Christ, the royal Master, leads against the foe; forward into battle, see his banner go! At the sign of triumph, Satan’s host doth flee; on, then, Christian soldiers, on to victory! Hell’s foundations quiver at the shout of praise; brothers, lift your voices, loud your anthems raise!” Praise the Lord!
“Like a mighty army moves the church of God; brothers, we are treading where the saints have trod; we are not divided; all one body we, one in hope and doctrine, one in charity.” March on, my brothers and sisters in Christ!
“We are soldiers of Christ, who is mighty to save, and his banner, the cross, is unfurled; we are pledged to be faithful and steadfast and brave against Satan, the flesh, and the world.”
“We will master the flesh, and its longings restrain, we will not be the bond-slaves of sin, the pure Spirit of God in our nature shall reign, and our spirits their freedom shall win.”
“Who is on the Lord’s side? Who will serve the King? Who will be His helpers, other lives to bring? Who will leave the world’s side? Who will face the foe? Who is on the Lord’s side? Who will go for Him? By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord’s side. Savior, we are Thine.”
“Fierce may be the conflict, strong may be the foe, but the King’s own army none can overthrow. Round His standard ranging, victory is secure, for His truth unchanging makes the triumph sure. Joyfully enlisting, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord’s side. Savior, we are Thine!”
This is what the Lord Almighty says: “These people say, ‘The time has not yet come to rebuild the Lord’s house.’ Then the word of the Lord came through the prophet Haggai: “Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses, while this house remains a ruin?” Haggai 1
“You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?” declares the Lord Almighty. “Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with your own house.” Therefore, because of you, the heavens have withheld their dew and the earth its crops. My brothers and sisters in Christ, the time to rebuild the Lord’s house is now.”
“Do not judge, or you will be judged. For with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye? Matthew 7:1-5
Why, then, do you judge your brother? Or why do you belittle your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.” So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God. Romans 14:10-12
