Scriptures:

• “One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”²⁹ “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. ³⁰ Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ ³¹ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”“ – Mark 12:28-31 (NIV)

 

• “He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.“ – Revelation 21:7 (KJV)

 

• “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. ¹⁴ But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.“ – Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV)

 

• “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.“ – Deuteronomy 31:6 (NIV)

 

• “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, ⁴ who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.“ – 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (NIV)

 

• “The Lord is exalted over all the nations,
  his glory above the heavens.
  ⁵ Who is like the Lord our God,
  the One who sits enthroned on high,“ – Psalm 113:4-5 (NIV)

 

• “There is no one holy like the Lord;
  there is no one besides you;
  there is no Rock like our God.“ – 1 Samuel 2:2 (NIV)
