18 No man has ever seen God. The only begotten Son, being in the bosom of the Father, that man reported him.
28 And he was there with LORD forty days and forty nights. He neither ate bread, nor drank water, and he wrote upon the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
10 For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of LORD forever.
5 Let your meekness be known to all men. The Lord is near.
31 Nevertheless in thy manifold mercies thou did not make a full end of them, nor forsake them, for thou are a gracious and merciful God.
13 In this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us from his Spirit.
17 They cried, and LORD heard, and delivered them out of all their troubles.
18 LORD is near to those who are of a broken heart, and saves such as are of a contrite spirit.
11 Finally brothers, farewell. Be thoroughly prepared, be encouraged, think the same way, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
9 And heal the weak in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come near to you.
4 Seek ye LORD and his strength. Seek his face evermore.
4 One thing I have asked of LORD, that I will seek after, that I may dwell in the house of LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of LORD, and to inquire in his temple.
6 Seek ye LORD while he may be found. Call ye upon him while he is near.
11 Thou made known to (LXX/NT) me the path of life. Thou will fill me of joy with thy countenance (LXX/NT).
1 And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded.
2 And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. LORD is with you while ye are with him. And if ye seek him, he will be found of you, but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.
3 Now for a long time Israel was without the TRUE God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
4 But when in their distress they turned to LORD, the God of Israel, and sought him, he was found by them.
5 And in those times there was no peace to him who went out, nor to him who came in, but great vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the lands.
6 And they were broken in pieces, nation against nation, and city against city. For God vexed them with all adversity.
7 But be ye strong, and let not your hands be slack. For your work shall be rewarded.
8 And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from the hill-country of Ephra
9 And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those who sojourned with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon, for they came to him out of Israel in abundance when they saw that LORD his God was with him.
10 So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11 And they sacrificed to LORD in that day of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
12 And they entered into the covenant to seek LORD, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul.
13 And that whoever would not seek LORD, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
14 And they swore to LORD with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15 And all Judah rejoiced at the oath. For they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire, and he was found by them. And LORD gave them rest round about.
16 And also he removed Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah. And Asa cut down her image, and made dust of it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.
17 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
18 And he brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
19 And there was no more war to the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.
16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace through everything in every way. The Lord is with all of you.
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye, being formerly far off, became near in the blood of the Christ.
18 I will not leave you orphaned. I am coming to you.
57 LORD our God be with us as he was with our fathers. Let him not leave us, nor forsake us,
11 Seek ye LORD and his strength. Seek his face evermore.
