Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.
Isaiah 40:28, ESV
We cannot evade the sight nor deny the power of God. He sees and knows all, and He will one day judge us according to our sin or how we responded to and lived for Christ.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
Galatians 5:22-23 ESV
Our sin keeps us from doing all of these perfectly, but the blood of Christ and the work of the Holy Spirit give us the power to live in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—is not from the Father but is from the world.
1 John 2:15-16 ESV
Love the people of ther world through word and action.
Reject the sinful desires of the world (things, wealth, sex, violence, death), instead pursuing God and His righteousness.
“I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”
Jeremiah 17:10, ESV
God knows that everything we do is tainted by sin. So we are under judgment, unless we are found washed by the blood of Christ.
And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
Hebrews 11:6, ESV
You cannot be saved without believing God exists, the Son came bodily and without sin to die for our sin, rose again to life, and will return to earth to spend eternity with His faithful servants.
Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act.
Psalm 37:5, ESV
Do not merely pray for God to bless your plans. Seek His will, to walk in His wisdom, and your plans will be His plans and will succeed by His standard.
Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord ; I will take joy in the God of my salvation.
Habakkuk 3:17-18, ESV
Though everything may go wrong, though this world is often horrible, we take joy in knowing our God has saved us for His glory and will one day take us to be with Him forever!
So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:13, ESV
We have faith, because God is faithful.
We have hope, because God has promised.
We love, because God is love and has loved us.
Loving is sharing Christ.
Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.
Philippians 2:3 ESV
Just as Christ did not rely on His divinity while on earth, but denied Himself to the point of dying to redeem us, we should love others enough to take care of their needs before our own.
Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.
1 John 3:18, ESV
Some may say “share the Gospel, and if necessary use words.”
That is not the point here. Rather, it is better said “put your money where your mouth is.”
Do not merely teach it: Do it.
