1 Corinthians 13:13

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—

I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;
    I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.

These people come near to me with their mouth
    and honor me with their lips,
    but their hearts are far from me.
Their worship of me
    is based on merely human rules they have been taught.

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

For your ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all your paths.

But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,

Even though I walk
    through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
    for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.

Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The LORD, the LORD himself, is my strength and my defense;
he has become my salvation.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.

He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases strength.

And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Trust in the Lord forever,
    for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal.

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.”

But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.

Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.

For the Lord is good and his love endures forever;
    his faithfulness continues through all generations.
