MATTHEW 6:11, NASB
All we have and receive comes from God.
Ask Him.
Trust Him.
He is our Provider.
For this reason You are great, O Lord God ; for there is none like You, and there is no God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
2 Samuel 7:22, NASB
There is only one God, who reveals the end from the beginning and made a way for sinful humanity to draw near.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
Psalms 23:4, NASB
We will face problems in this life. Sometimes they are inflicted on us by others, and sometimes they are a result of our sinful choices. In all, God is in control and uses them to discipline and lead us to His final, eternal comfort.
Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
James 5:16, NASB

Pray for each other.
And do not neglect doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
Hebrews 13:16, NASB

If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

It is love. Get over yourself. Love them.
Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!
1 Chronicles 16:24, ESV
The Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20) was not the first time God said to share about Him with the world. As followers and believers, we must share the faith we have.
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.
Deuteronomy 6:5, ESV
All of the Law and prophets hinge on this command. Indeed, nothing in this life matters if we do not love and glorify God.
When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.
Psalm 94:19, ESV
Sometimes we encounter difficulties in life that weigh on us.
God’s promises and encouragement can make the burden lighter and bring joy.
Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.
James 1:12, ESV
Temptations, persecution, mocking, and struggles and worries will come our way. If we trust God and hold firm, they may not touch us, or they will bring us to Him all the quicker. Either way, they will not stop us!
