Spend Time with Him

Dear Friend, have you spent time reading the bible today?  Have you prayed today?  How often do you talk to people about the bible?  Are you prepared to give an answer for the hope you have in Him?  When is the most recent time you told our Lord that you love him and are thankful for all He has done for you?  How many times have you said that a particular verse is in the bible, but didn't know where to find it? Here are some familiar verses that provide strength, hope, encouragement, and power for today.  Read each verse carefully, and commit them to memory, one at a time.   Ecclesiastes 3:11  "He has made everything beautiful in its time." Psalm 90:12  "Teach to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." Matthew 6:34  "Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will take care for itself." Jeremiah 33:3  "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." Philippians 4:6-7  "Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.  And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Matthew 24:44  "Therefore be ye also ready; for in an hour that ye think not the Son of Man cometh." Psalm 5:3  "In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation."

Proverbs 6:16-19  "There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers." 1 Peter 3:15  "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear." Psalm 32:7  "You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance." Mark 13:31  "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away."   Dave Henry
