SCRIPTURES

Hebrews 12:1-2, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.” (NIV) 

Colossians 3:15, “Let the peace of Christ [the inner calm of one who walks daily with Him] be the controlling factor in your hearts [deciding and settling questions that arise]. To this peace indeed you were called as members in one body [of believers]. And be thankful [to God always].” (AMP)

Matthew 28:18-20, “Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (NIV)

Matthew 5:14, “Your lives light up the world. Let others see your light from a distance, for how can you hide a city that stands on a hilltop?” (TPT)
