Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Scriptures you can't ignore:
(In no particular order...all scripture is from NASB)

1...Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."

2...Romans 11:33-36 "Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgements and unfathomable His ways! For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who became His counselor? Or who has first given to Him that it might be paid back to Him again? For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.

3...2 Samuel 7:22 "...You are great , O Lord God, for there is none like You, and there is no God besides You..."

4...Galatians 2:20 "I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me."

5...Isaiah 42:8 "I am the LORD, that is My name; I will not give My glory to another, Nor my praise to graven images." I heard a great sermon by Louie Giglio years ago and still recall it to this day. 'I am the Lord, that is My name...which means, it's not YOUR name.'

6...Philippians 3:14 "I press on toward the goal for the prize fo the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."

7...Job 42:2 Job responding to the Lord, "I know that You can do all things, And that no purpose of Yours can be thwarted."

8...Colossians 3:23 "Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men."

9...Psalm 25:5 "Lead me in Your truth and teach me, For You are the God of my salvationl For You I wait all the day."

10...Isaiah 64:4b "...Nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who acts in behalf of the one who waits for Him."

11...Psalm 37:4 "Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart."

12...I John 4:18a "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear..."

13...2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come."

What a great T13. I should post a T13 about Bible verses, but I think I would had a hard time picking just 13.

Those are great verses.

My favorits is Jeremiah 29:11

For I know the plans I have for you declares the LORD. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future.

I hold onto that verse whenever I don't understand something He is doing in my life.

My T13 is up.
