MY SCRIPTURE TODAY

ISAIAH 55:8-10

8 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD.

9 "As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

10 As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,

Psalm62:5-8

5 My soul wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him.6 He only is my rock and my salvation;He is my defense;I shall not be moved.

7 In God is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength, And my refuge, is in God.

8 Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah

Psalm 121

1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

proverbs 3 13-26

13 Blessed is the man who finds wisdom,
the man who gains understanding,

14 for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.

16 Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.

17 Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.

18 She is a tree of life to those who embrace her;
those who lay hold of her will be blessed.

19 By wisdom the LORD laid the earth's foundations,
by understanding he set the heavens in place;

20 by his knowledge the deeps were divided,
and the clouds let drop the dew.

21 My son, preserve sound judgment and discernment,
do not let them out of your sight;

22 they will be life for you,
an ornament to grace your neck.

23 Then you will go on your way in safety,
and your foot will not stumble;

24 when you lie down, you will not be afraid;
when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.

25 Have no fear of sudden disaster
or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked,

26 for the LORD will be your confidence
and will keep your foot from being snared.

I like this scripture idea of yours.
I find that when I have difficulty focusing or concentrating, special passages are my prayers.
Here's a personal favorite;
Isaiah 41 verse 10..."Fear thou not ,for I am with thee. Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee. Yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand [Jesus ] of my righteousness."
Thanks...m.b.

What a wonderful thread. Thanks. How come I never noticed this site before? I don't have scripture memorised but to be reminded that it is there is a good wakeup call. I think I have always looked outside and try to see his presence in nature. Looking forwar to more.

If you guys don't mind, I have two I'd like to add. They're both really short. Here's the first one.

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13

The second one is from the Old Testament and it's really good.

"Even youths grow tired and weary,
And young men stumble and fall;
But those who hope in the Lord
Will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
They will run and not grow weary,
They will walk and not be faint."
Isaiah 40:30-31

If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray...then will I hear from heaven...

Hello I love the Scriptures you have posted, Ihope everything is going well with you and your family. Take care Sincerely Soidhonia

Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (Psalm 61:1-4)

Let Him have all your worries and cares. for He is always thinking about you and everything that concerns you. 1Peter chp5v7

For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than live in the tents of wickedness. Psalm 84 v10

John 10:10

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they (K)may have life, and have it abundantly

Thanks, Timber! I needed this today!

Luke 6:38 (Contemporary English Version)

38If you give to others, you will be given a full amount in return. It will be packed down, shaken together, and spilling over into your lap.

BUT...

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 (New King James Version)

1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

I missed this one yesterday ( Joel Osteen )

Psalms 116:8-9 For You Lord , Have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears , my feet from stumbling , that I may walk before the Lord in the land of the living

This one hit me real hard this morning because I'm dealing with alot lately and it reconfirms that my faith within the Lord can deliver us from these bondages

love always my friends

Tymber

Especially for you, Froggie.

This is my favorite verse.

Psalm 19:1

1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork.

And here's why...

Genesis 1
The Beginning

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

6 And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." 7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

9 And God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear." And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground "land," and the gathered waters he called "seas." And God saw that it was good.

11 Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.

14 And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so. 16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.

20 And God said, "Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky." 21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 God blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth." 23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.

24 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.

28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

29 Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food." And it was so.

31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.

This thread is so uplifting. Whoever started this site I would like to thank them. Romans 8:28 is the one I stand on every day.. Watching and listening to Joel is something I look forward to each and every week.

These two passages come from Romans 8, which is my favorite chapter in the whole Bible.

"What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?"
Romans 8:31

I have these next two verses tattooed under the cross on my back (just the reference, not all the words).

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, either the present nor the future, not any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 8:38-39

You can thank Doc John for giving us this forum, Hon! Without him, it wouldn't be.
