The Foundation Verses I Thes. 5:23 - May the God of peace sanctify you completely. May your sprit, soul, and body be kept sound and blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it. Col. 4:2-6 – Devote yourselves to prayer, stay alert it in with thanksgiving. At the same time pray also for us that God may open a door to us for the message to speak the “mystery of the Messiah” – for which I am in prison, so that I may reveal it as I am required to speak. Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the time. Your speech should always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer each person. I Cor 16:13 – Be alert, stand firm in the faith, be brave and strong. Your every action must be done in love. Rom 16:27 – To the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to Him be the glory forever. Amen The Blessing What we should do May you devote yourselves to prayer, staying alert it in with thanksgiving.
