Ro 8:27-28 Now He who searches the hearts knows what

the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession

for the saints according to the will of God. And we know

in the seat of the scornful.

Ro 5:3-5 And not only that, but we also glory in

Holy Spirit who was given to us.



Php. 3:12-14 Not that I have already attained, or am already

perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which ChristJesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to

have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which

are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I

Jesus. Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and

if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you.



2Ti 2:23-25 But avoid foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing that they

generate strife. And a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle to

all, able to teach, patient, in humility correcting those who are in

know the truth ,and that they may come to their senses and escape the

snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all,

especially to those who are of the household of faith.



Heb 13:1 Let brotherly love continue...



Ro 8:36-37 As it is written: "For Your sake we are killed all

day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.“

Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors

through Him who loved us.



Ps 119:165 Great peace have those who love Your

law......And nothin causes them to stumble.



Heb 10:24-25 And let us consider one another in order to

stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling

of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but

exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see

the Day approaching.



Isa 26:3-4 You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose

mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. Trust in

the LORD forever, For in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting

strength.



Heb 12:2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our

faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the

cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right

hand of the throne of God.

members, but all the members of that one body, being

many, are one body, so also is Christ... But now indeed

there are many members, yet one body.

requests be made known to God; and the peace of God,

and minds through Christ Jesus.

labour of love which you have shown toward His name, in thatyou have ministered to the saints, and do minister. And we

desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full

assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become

sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience

triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of

His knowledge in every place
