18 The Lord will save me from every wrong thing. He will bring me safely into the kingdom of heaven. Praise him for ever and ever. Yes, he will!
3 But the Lord can be trusted. He will make you strong. He will keep you safe from all that is wrong.
28 All you who work hard! All you who carry heavy loads! Come to me! I will give you rest.
33 I have told you these things so that you may have peace. I give you peace. The world will trouble you much. But be glad. I have power over the world.
33 I have told you these things so that you may have peace. I give you peace. The world will trouble you much. But be glad. I have power over the world.
21 Do not let wrong things win a victory over you. But win a victory over wrong things by the good things you do.
11 They have won the fight against him by the blood of the Lambs death, and by what they said. They did not try to save their lives, but were willing to die.
46 He said to them, Why are you sleeping? Get up. Talk with God so that you will not do wrong.
5 Do not let the love of money control your life. Be satisfied with what you have. God himself has said, I will never be away from you. I will never leave you alone.
57 So, my dear brothers, stand strong. Do not be moved from what you believe. Work hard for the Lord. You know that your work for the Lord will not be for nothing.
37 But God can do anything.
8 Anyone who does what is wrong belongs to the devil. The devil has done what is wrong from the beginning. That is why Gods Son came. He came to stop what the devil does.
8 Keep awake! Watch! Your enemy the devil is walking around like a growling lion. He is looking for someone to catch.
9 Fight against the devil. Be strong because you believe. Remember that your brothers all over the world suffer the same kind of trouble as you.
10 God gives all blessings. He has called you through Christ to be great with him for ever. When you have suffered for a short time, he will make you all right. He will make you strong and steady.
21 He who wins will sit with me on my throne in heaven. I won too, and I sat down with my Father on his throne."
13 But you were kind to help me when I was in trouble.
4 My children, you belong to God. You have won the victory over those prophets who are not true. You have won because the Spirit that is in you is stronger than the spirit that is in the world.
22 Stop being the person you used to be in your old life. That person was bad because he wanted to do wrong things.
23 Have a new mind and heart.
24 Be a new person. That new person has been made like God. He does what is right and holy because he knows the truth.
18 He had a very hard time when he was tested. But because he was tested, he is able to help people who are tested.
35 Who can take us away from Christs love? We may have trouble. We may have hard times. People may make us suffer because we believe. We may have no food to eat and no clothes to wear. We may be in danger. We may be killed with big knives. Can any of these things take us away from Christs love?
7 So let God control you. Fight the devil and he will run away from you.
8 Come to God and he will come to you. You bad people, make your hands clean! You love what is good and what is wrong at the same time. Make your hearts clean.
4 My children, you belong to God. You have won the victory over those prophets who are not true. You have won because the Spirit that is in you is stronger than the spirit that is in the world.
5 The Light shone where it was dark and the darkness did not stop the Light from shining.
26 When you are angry, do not do anything wrong. And do not stay angry after the sun goes down.
27 Do not let the devil control you.
37 But Christ loved us. He has helped us to win great victory in all these things.
3 Think about him. He did not give up when bad people said wrong things about him. When you think about him, you will not become tired and your hearts will not give up.
10 I have done this so that Satan will not get ahead of us. We know his tricks. of Troas to tell the good news of Christ, the door was open for me to work for the Lord.
11 But my mind was troubled because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said goodbye to the people there and went on to the country of Macedonia. Christ. And Christ leads us to victory every time. To know Christ is like a sweet smell. And God lets us carry that sweet smell of his truth everywhere.
40 He said to them, Talk with God so that you will not do wrong.
13 No testing has come to you that other people do not have. But God will not fail you. He will not allow the testing to be too hard for you. No. When the testing comes, God will make a way out for you, so that you can go through the testing.
12 Work hard at believing in God more and more. Make sure that you get everlasting life; God called you to have it. You stood before many people and said that you believed in Christ. That was the right thing to say.
1 We have all these people all around us, proving to us that we should believe God. So then, like people running a race, we must take off everything that is heavy. We must put off all wrong, wrong things that get in our way. We must not stop running until we reach the mark that has been put in front of us.
5 He who wins will wear white clothes. I will not take his name out of the book of life. I will tell his name to my Father and to his angels."
21 Do not let wrong things win a victory over you. But win a victory over wrong things by the good things you do.
10 Do not be proud before the Lord. Then he will lift you up.
5 Who wins a victory over the world? It is only the person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
19 I have given you power over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will hurt you.
21 He who wins will sit with me on my throne in heaven. I won too, and I sat down with my Father on his throne."
9 People who want to be rich have trouble. They get caught in a trap. They want many foolish things which are wrong for them. Because of this, men are lost and punished for ever.
12 God will bless any man who is strong to take his trouble, when he is being tested. When he has proved he is strong, he will live for ever. That is what the Lord has promised to those who love him.
13 No one who wants to do something wrong should say, God is trying to make me do this wrong thing. God cannot do anything wrong.
14 It is their own heart which is wrong. That is why he wants to do something wrong. It fools him.
15 Then the wrong in his heart makes him do the wrong thing. And the wrong thing he has done leads to death.
14 We are not like some people. They tell Gods message to make money. But we tell it with a true heart just as God told it to us. We tell it as if we stood before God. And we tell it with Christs help.
15 Do you not know that your bodies belong to Christ? Shall I take parts of Christ and join them to a bad woman? No, never!
16 Do you not know that the person who joins himself to a bad woman becomes one person with her? The holy writings say, The two people shall be like one body.
17 But the one who joins himself with the Lord becomes one spirit with him.
18 Run away from every kind of wrong sex! Every other wrong thing which a person does is done outside of his body. But the person who uses sex the wrong way does a wrong thing to his own body.
19 Do you not know that your body is the house of the Holy Spirit who lives in you? God gave the Holy Spirit to you. Remember, you do not belong to yourself.
20 But you were bought and paid for. So then, bring glory to God with your bodies.
10 Use everything that God has given you so that you can fight against the tricks of the devil.
11 We are not fighting against people of flesh and blood. But we are fighting against rulers and powers whom we cannot see. We are fighting against those who control the darkness of this world, and against bad spirits who have power in the air.
12 So use everything that God has given you, that you can fight when the bad time comes. You will need to do everything you can do to stand!
13 So then, stand and hold on tight to the truth like you put on a belt. Do what is right. Wear it as a cover for your body.
14 You have the good news of peace. Wear that like shoes on your feet.
15 You believe in God. Take that and cover all of yourself with it. With that you can stop all the poison arrows of the devil.
16 You have been saved. Wear your salvation like you wear something on your head to protect yourself. And take with you the big knife or sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
17 Always talk to God in the Spirit. Talk to him about everything and ask him for what you need. Put your mind on what you are saying, asking God to help all his people.
3 We show that we love God when we obey his laws. His laws are not hard to obey.
4 Everyone who is Gods child wins a victory over the world. We win because we believe God.
5 Who wins a victory over the world? It is only the person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
28 We know that God works out everything for the good of those who love him. They are the people who are part of his plan.
8 Keep awake! Watch! Your enemy the devil is walking around like a growling lion. He is looking for someone to catch.
12 Children, I am writing to you because God has forgiven the wrong things you have done. Your wrong ways have been forgiven because of what Christ did.
13 Fathers, I am writing to you because you know the One who has lived from the beginning. Young men, I am writing to you because you have won the victory over the devil. Children, I write to you because you know Father God.
14 Fathers, I write to you because you know him, the one who has lived from the beginning. Young men, I write to you because you are strong. You believe Gods word. You have won the victory over the devil.
15 Do not love the world, or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, he does not love the Father.
16 So I say, let the Spirit tell you what you should do. Then you will not do the wrong things you yourselves want to do.
17 People want to do wrong things that the Spirit does not want them to do. And the Spirit wants people to do things they do not want to do. The Spirit and the wrong things you want to do are against each other, so that you do not do what you yourself want to do.
4 Everyone who is Gods child wins a victory over the world. We win because we believe God.
38 All of you must watch and talk with God so that you will not do wrong. A persons heart can want to do it, but his body is weak.
57 So, my dear brothers, stand strong. Do not be moved from what you believe. Work hard for the Lord. You know that your work for the Lord will not be for nothing.
