Encouragement Verses
- Philippians 4: 6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
- 2 Corinthians 4:15-17
“All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God. Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.” - Philippians 4: 19 And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.
- Matthew 19:26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
ACTION:
BE INTENTIONAL
BE HIS DISCIPLE
BE A DISCIPLE MAKER
- Matthew 28: 18-20
18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Let us pray for all levels of governments, and reduction of non-productive rhetoric, harmony, and beneficial working relationship for the country; cessation of current wars, and allow hope, joy, love to reign in all our hearts so that true peace can be experienced.
