Psalms 103:8-12 The Lord is compassionate and merciful, very patient, and full of faithful love.
God won’t always play the judge; he won’t be angry forever.  He doesn’t deal with us according to our sin or repay us according to our wrongdoing, because as high as heaven is above the earth, that’s how large God’s faithful love is for those who honor him.  As far as east is from west—that’s how far God has removed our sin from us.

Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let’s settle this, says the Lord. Though your sins are like scarlet, they will be white as snow. If they are red as crimson, they will become like wool.

Acts 10:43 All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.”

Ephesians 1:7-10 We have been ransomed through his Son’s blood, and we have forgiveness for our failures based on his overflowing grace,  which he poured over us with wisdom and understanding.  God revealed his hidden design to us, which is according to his goodwill and the plan that he intended to accomplish through his Son.  This is what God planned for the climax of all times: to bring all things together in Christ, the things in heaven along with the things on earth.

Colossians 1:13-14 He rescued us from the control of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of the Son he loves.  He set us free through the Son and forgave our sins.

1 John 1:9 But if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from everything we’ve done wrong.

I Am Free

Psalms 118:5 In tight circumstances, I cried out to the Lord. The Lord answered me with wide-open spaces.

John 8:36 Therefore, if the Son makes you free, you really will be free.

Romans 6:6-8 This is what we know: the person that we used to be was crucified with him in order to get rid of the corpse that had been controlled by sin. That way we wouldn’t be slaves to sin anymore,  because a person who has died has been freed from sin’s power.  But if we died with Christ, we have faith that we will also live with him.

2 Corinthians 3:17 The Lord is the Spirit, and where the Lord’s Spirit is, there is freedom.

Galatians 5:1 Christ has set us free for freedom. Therefore, stand firm and don’t submit to the bondage of slavery again.

Galatians 5:13 Christ has set us free for freedom. Therefore, stand firm and don’t submit to the bondage of slavery again.

1 Peter 2:16 Do this as God’s slaves, and yet also as free people, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil.

I Have Hope

Psalms 25:3 For that matter, don’t let anyone who hopes in you be put to shame; instead, let those who are treacherous without excuse be put to shame.

Psalms 71:5 because you are my hope, Lord. You, Lord, are the one I’ve trusted since childhood.

Proverbs 23:18 then you will have a future, and your hope won’t be cut off.

Lamentations 3:25 The Lord is good to those who hope in him, to the person who seeks him.

Romans 5:1-5 Therefore, since we have been made righteous through his faithfulness, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.  We have access by faith into this grace in which we stand through him, and we boast in the hope of God’s glory.  But not only that! We even take pride in our problems, because we know that trouble produces endurance,  endurance produces character, and character produces hope.  This hope doesn’t put us to shame, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

2 Corinthians 3:12 So, since we have such a hope, we act with great confidence.

Hebrews 10:23 Let’s hold on to the confession of our hope without wavering, because the one who made the promises is reliable.

1 Peter 1:3-4 May the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ be blessed! On account of his vast mercy, he has given us new birth. You have been born anew into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.  You have a pure and enduring inheritance that cannot perish—an inheritance that is presently kept safe in heaven for you.

I Am Gifted

Romans 12:6-8 We have different gifts that are consistent with God’s grace that has been given to us. If your gift is prophecy, you should prophesy in proportion to your faith.  If your gift is service, devote yourself to serving. If your gift is teaching, devote yourself to teaching.  If your gift is encouragement, devote yourself to encouraging. The one giving should do it with no strings attached. The leader should lead with passion. The one showing mercy should be cheerful.

(1 Corinthians Chapter 12)

Ephesians 4:11-13 He gave some apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers.  His purpose was to equip God’s people for the work of serving and building up the body of Christ  until we all reach the unity of faith and knowledge of God’s Son. God’s goal is for us to become mature adults—to be fully grown, measured by the standard of the fullness of Christ.

James 1:17 Every good gift, every perfect gift, comes from above. These gifts come down from the Father, the creator of the heavenly lights, in whose character there is no change at all.

1 Peter 4:10 And serve each other according to the gift each person has received, as good managers of God’s diverse gifts.

I Have A Purpose

Jeremiah 29:11 I know the plans I have in mind for you, declares the Lord; they are plans for peace, not disaster, to give you a future filled with hope.

Proverbs 16:9 People plan their path, but the Lord secures their steps.

John 15:16 You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you could go and produce fruit and so that your fruit could last. As a result, whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you.

Romans 8:28 We know that God works all things together for good for the ones who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.

Ephesians 2:10 Instead, we are God’s accomplishment, created in Christ Jesus to do good things. God planned for these good things to be the way that we live our lives.

I Am Valuable

Genesis 1:27 God created humanity in God’s own image, in the divine image God created them, male and female God created them.

Job 33:4 God’s spirit made me; the Almighty’s breath enlivens me

Psalms 17:8 Watch me with the very pupil of your eye! Hide me in the protection of your wings,

Psalms 139:13-15 You are the one who created my innermost parts; you knit me together while I was still in my mother’s womb. I give thanks to you that I was marvelously set apart. Your works are wonderful—I know that very well.  My bones weren’t hidden from you when I was being put together in a secret place, when I was being woven together in the deep parts of the earth.

John 3:16 God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him won’t perish but will have eternal life.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you? Don’t you know that you have the Holy Spirit from God, and you don’t belong to yourselves?  You have been bought and paid for, so honor God with your body.

2 Corinthians 3:5 It isn’t that we ourselves are qualified to claim that anything came from us. No, our qualification is from God.

I Am Blessed

Psalms 32:1-2 The one whose wrongdoing is forgiven, whose sin is covered over, is truly happy! The one the Lord doesn’t consider guilty—in whose spirit there is no dishonesty—that one is truly happy!

Psalms 144:15 The people who have it like this are truly happy! The people whose God is the Lord are truly happy!

Galatians 3:8 But when it saw ahead of time that God would make the Gentiles righteous on the basis of faith, scripture preached the gospel in advance to Abraham: All the Gentiles will be blessed in you

Ephesians 1:3 Bless the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing that comes from heaven.

Romans 10:12-13 There is no distinction between Jew and Greek, because the same Lord is Lord of all, who gives richly to all who call on him.  All who call on the Lord’s name will be saved
