“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” - JOHN 17:20-23

Go now, and say this loud enough for all Jerusalem to hear.
Go now, and say this loud enough for all Jerusalem to hear. Tell them that the Eternal speaks these words: “I still remember the way you clung to Me in your youth, in the early days of our union. Like a young bride, you loved the vows you made. As I led you from slavery in Egypt to your freedom in Canaan, you drew close to Me. Even in the barren wilderness along the way, I filled your every need.
Eternal One: What happened between us? What could I have done to your ancestors that was so wrong, so unfair? Why would they pull away from Me to pursue the empty worship of idols that has left them just as empty? - JEREMIAH 2:2, 5

God wants us to live our lives with self-control. What areas of your life are difficult to exercise self-control?
God wants us to live our lives with self-control. What areas of your life are difficult to exercise self-control? For many of us, it could be purchasing, eating, discipline or something else. Find what it is for you and choose to pray and ask for help from friends that have a strength in your area of weakness. - Proverbs 25:28

But I will say this to encourage your generosity: the one who plants little harvests little, and the one who plants plenty harvests plenty.
“But I will say this to encourage your generosity: the one who plants little harvests little, and the one who plants plenty harvests plenty. Giving grows out of the heart—otherwise, you’ve reluctantly grumbled “yes” because you felt you had to or because you couldn’t say “no,” but this isn’t the way God wants it. For we know that “God loves a cheerful giver.” - 2 CORINTHIANS 9: 6-7

The revelation of God is whole and pulls our lives together
The revelation of God is whole and pulls our lives together. The signposts of God are clear and point out the right road. The life-maps of God are right, showing the way to joy. The directions of God are plain and easy on the eyes. God’s reputation is twenty-four-carat gold, with a lifetime guarantee. The decisions of God are accurate down to the nth degree. - PSALM 19:7-9 MSG

This is my life work: helping people understand and respond to this Message.
This is my life work: helping people understand and respond to this Message. It came as a sheer gift to me, a real surprise, God handling all the details. When it came to presenting the Message to people who had no background in God’s way, I was the least qualified of any of the available Christians. God saw too it that I was equipped, but you can be sure that it had nothing to do with my natural abilities. - EPHESIANS 3:7-8

She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her
The woman was convinced. She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it, too. At that moment their eyes were opened, and they suddenly felt shame at their nakedness. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves. When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man[a] and his wife heard the Lord God walking about in the garden. So they hid from the Lord God among the trees. - GENESIS 3:6-8

how can we be sure that we belong to him?
And how can we be sure that we belong to him? By looking within ourselves: are we really trying to do what he wants us to? Someone may say, I am a Christian; I am on my way to heaven; I belong to Christ.But if he doesn’t do what Christ tells him to, he is a liar.But those who do what Christ tells them to will learn to love God more and more. That is the way to know whether or not you are a Christian. - 1 JOHN 2:3-5

Think very carefully about your choices. You have planted a large crop, but your harvest is small.
Think very carefully about your choices. You have planted a large crop, but your harvest is small. You have food to eat, but it is never enough to satisfy. You have something to drink, but you are never filled. You have clothes to wear, but they are not enough to keep you warm. You earn a salary, but the money runs out quickly, as if there are holes in your pocket.Think very carefully about your choices. - HAGGAI 1:5-7
