PostPost subject: Important Scriptures Reply with quote

I was thinking here that you share any scriptures you find that may be of use.

I'll kick it off.

Psa 1:1
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers

I dunno why, but this really stands out to me as a way to behave.

Haha I was gonna start a thread up like this but someone already did. Ftw Chris.

Well of course, I'm going to put 1 Peter 1:13-16


And in response to that verse Chris, it's a good one.

I guess it's somewhat telling us we need to be like Jesus, yet be humble about it and that is when God will bless us the most.

Keeping with the Psalms:

Psalm 27:3-4 (ESV) (NIV at www.biblegateway.com)

3 Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, yet I will be confident.
4 One thing have I asked of the LORD, that I seek after: 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 inquire in his temple.

when i first got saved, i got my shit ruined by proverbs, haha.

i like all the ones where jesus has all the comebacks, right when he needs them. damn that fella can argue...

my favourite, at least of the ones that come to mind, the second half or so of joh:8. after the woman doesn't get stoned, that one.

i heard one this morning, also, in a third day tune. i think it is best yelled very loudly.

TRULY I TELL YOU, TODAY YOU WILL BE WITH ME IN PARADISE.

that's jesus, talking to the thief in luke 23:43.

Okay, I wrote this on the bookmark I made for my bible..

"The Lord saves the lives of his servants. Run to him for protection, and you won't be punished." - Psalms, 35:22.

I like that one.

Do not say, "I'll pay you back for this wrong!"
Wait for the LORD, and he will deliver you.

i get chills everytime i read isaiah 53ish, but starting from the end of 52.

doesn't matter where from though really, i get chills just the same...

also, i was just led to isaiah 26. after a bit of a read i came upon a verse almost hilariously confusing...

Isa 27:7 Hath he smitten them as he smote those that smote them? or are they slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by them?

king james ftw!

but yeah, i got my important thing in chapter 26. y'know, one day i'll get around to reading isaiah, until then though, i'm happy to just be led about.

1 John 4:4.

4You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

Sorry for the repeat. And to dig up an old thread.
Thought it might be important to someone though.

<b>Ephesians 3:20</b>

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.

Revelation 21:3b-4, 6-7.

They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes.
There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.

He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.
To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life.
He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God, and he will be my son.


Had to post this.. almost brought tears to my eyes.

I was reading the bible on the toilet the other night, lol, and I opened up to random pages, and what I found really spoke to me...
Take note that these are from a youth bible, so they may be written differently...

Matthew 5:14-16
"14You are like light for the whole world. A city built on top of a hill cannot be hidden, 15and no one would light a lamp and put it under a clay pot. A lamp is placed on a lampstand, where it can give light to everyone in the house. 16Make your light shine, so that others will see the good that you do and will praise your Father in heaven."

And this one REALLY spoke to me:

1st Corinthians 12:29-31
"29Not everyone is an apostle. Not everyone is a prophet. Not everyone is a teacher. Not everyone can work miracles. 30Not everyone can heal the sick. Not everyone can speak different kinds of languages. Not everyone can tell what these languages mean. 31I want you to desire the best gifts. So I will show you a much better way."

Colossians 3:1-2
V.1 "If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God."
V.2 "Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth."

Paul writes that beacause you have a new life in Christ, you are to set your heart and mind on what is in heaven. He isn't saying that you should lose your sence of reality because your head ia always somewhere else, but that life in this world will be better if it is lived with the power that comes from heaven. You will handle success, failure, and disappiontment with maturity and piose when you have an eternal perspective. An eternal perspective means that you look at today's events in light of eternity. Very Happy

Jude 1:9-10 wrote:
9But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not dare to bring a slanderous accusation against him, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"

10Yet these men speak abusively against whatever they do not understand; and what things they do understand by instinct, like unreasoning animals--these are the very things that destroy them.



Woweee aye
