Revelation 1:3

Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.

Romans 5:1-5 

¹Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, ²through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. ³Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; ⁴perseverance, character; and character, hope. ⁵And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

Psalm 27

Of David.

 ¹ The LORD is my light and my salvation—

       whom shall I fear?

       The LORD is the stronghold of my life—

       of whom shall I be afraid?  ² When evil men advance against me

       to devour my flesh,

       when my enemies and my foes attack me,

       they will stumble and fall.

 ³ Though an army besiege me,

       my heart will not fear;

       though war break out against me,

       even then will I be confident.

 ⁴ One thing I ask of the LORD,

       this is what I seek:

       that I may dwell in the house of the LORD

       all the days of my life,

       to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD

       and to seek him in his temple.

 ⁵ For in the day of trouble

       he will keep me safe in his dwelling;

       he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle

       and set me high upon a rock.

 ⁶ Then my head will be exalted

       above the enemies who surround me;

       at his tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy;

       I will sing and make music to the LORD.

 ⁷ Hear my voice when I call, O LORD;

       be merciful to me and answer me.

 ⁸ My heart says of you, "Seek his  face!"

       Your face, LORD, I will seek.

 ⁹ Do not hide your face from me,

       do not turn your servant away in anger;

       you have been my helper.

       Do not reject me or forsake me,

       O God my Savior.

 ¹⁰ Though my father and mother forsake me,

       the LORD will receive me.

 ¹¹ Teach me your way, O LORD;

       lead me in a straight path

       because of my oppressors.

 ¹² Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes,

       for false witnesses rise up against me,

       breathing out violence.

 ¹³ I am still confident of this:

       I will see the goodness of the LORD

       in the land of the living.

 ¹⁴ Wait for the LORD;

       be strong and take heart

       and wait for the LORD.

Proverbs 25:4

  Remove the dross from the silver,

       and out comes material for the silversmith;

Ephesians 6:11

Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.

Hebrews 4:12
"For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart."

Jeremiah 17:9- 10

 ⁹ The heart is deceitful above all things

       and beyond cure.

       Who can understand it?

 ¹⁰ "I the LORD search the heart

       and examine the mind,

       to reward a man according to his conduct,

       according to what his deeds deserve."

Isaiah 59:12-14

 ^"12 For our offenses are many in your sight,

       and our sins testify against us.

       Our offenses are ever with us,

       and we acknowledge our iniquities:

 ¹³ rebellion and treachery against the LORD,

       turning our backs on our God,

       fomenting oppression and revolt,

       uttering lies our hearts have conceived.

 ¹⁴ So justice is driven back,

       and righteousness stands at a distance;

       truth has stumbled in the streets,

       honesty cannot enter."
