God of Hope

This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! (2 Corinthians 5:17)

I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him (Romans 15:13).

Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom. . . . Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom. All who obey his commandments will grow in wisdom (Psalm 90:12; 111:10).

Be strong and finish the task! (Zechariah 8:9) Throw yourself into your tasks so that everyone will see your progress (1 Timothy 4:15).

Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many (Hebrews 9:27-28).

For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline (2 Timothy 1:7).

But by means of their suffering, he rescues those who suffer. For he gets their attention through adversity (Job 36:15). 

Choose a good reputation over great riches; being held in high esteem is better than silver or gold (Proverbs 22:1). 

You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35).

The heart of the godly thinks carefully before speaking. . . . The king is pleased with words from righteous lips; he loves those who speak honestly (Proverbs 15:28; 16:13).

May integrity and honesty protect me, for I put my hope in you. . . . Joyful are people of integrity, who follow the instructions of the Lord (Psalm 25:21; 119:1).

He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy (Acts 14:17).
