Words To Live By...
Don't Worry- Matthew 6:28-33 KJV
28) And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29) And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30) Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
31) Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32) (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33) But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Have Faith- Hebrews 11:1-3 KJV
1)Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2)For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3)Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Obtain Peace- Romans 5:1-8 KJV
1)Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2)By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3)And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4)And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
5)And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
6)For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7)For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

10)Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
11)Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.

13)Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
14)Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
15)and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
16)In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
17)Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18)And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
