Psalm 40:4 & 5 (NKJV)
Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, and does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies. Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful works which you have done; and Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in order; if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
1 Peter 5:6 & 7 (NKJV)
Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
Deuteronomy 28:1 & 2 (NKJV)
"Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the LORD your God."
Abba Father it is You in whom we place our trust, it is Your word we seek to know, Your commandments we strive to obey, Your promise we are eager to hear, and the love and forgiveness of Your Son we thankfully accept; it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we pray. Amen.
