If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us. 1 John 1:10
“If we confess our sins, God is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”
This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you that God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 1 John 1:5
“If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.”
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched; this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The Life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 1 John
“We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We write this to make our joy complete.”
The Lord your God is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory, He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will renew you in His love He will exult over you with loud singing as on a day of festival. Zephaniah 3
“I will remove disaster from you, so that you will not bear reproach for it. I will deal with your oppressors at that time, and I will save the lame from the outcast and will change their shame into praise and make them renown in all the earth.”
Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say, rejoice! Philippians 4:1
“The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer, and supplication, and with thanksgiving, let your request be made known to God; and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Come, ye children, hearken unto me. I will teach you the fear of the Lord. Psalm 34
What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good? Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. Taste and see the goodness of the Lord!
“Oh taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who trusts in Him. Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him. The young lions lack and suffer hunger, but those who seek the Lord, shall not lack any good thing.”
I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked to Him and were radiant, and their faces were not ashamed. The poor man cried out, and the Lord heard him, and saved him from all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps around all those who fear him, and delivers them.”
I will bless the Lord at times, His praise shall continually be in my mouth. Psalm 34
“My soul shall make its boast in the Lord, the humble shall hear of it and be glad. Oh magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.”
“I always thank my God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. For in him you have been enriched in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge.” Praise the Lord!
“God has confirmed our testimony about Christ among you. Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed. He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” To God be the glory!
For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But, if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will you Father in heaven forgive your trespasses. Matthew 6:14-15
Heavenly Father, we all grieve your Spirit in more ways than one, yet you in your mercy forgive us, teach us to be like-minded so that we can forgive those who trespass against us; Lord, remove from us all hardness of heart, remove from us our hearts of stone and put in us hearts of flesh, teach us to be loving and kind one to another, unite us Lord, and make us one with you, in your Holy name we pray. Amen!
