Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.

A Secret Place Psalm 91
"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD,
He is my refuge and my fortress:
my God;
in Him will I trust.
Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with His feathers,
and under His wings shalt thou trust:
His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;
nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness;
nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side,
and ten thousand at thy right hand;
but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold
and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD,
which is my refuge,
even the most High,
thy habitation;
there shall no evil befall thee,
neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For He shall give His angels charge over thee,
to keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands,
lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder:
the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
Because he hath set his love upon Me,
therefore will I deliver him:
I will set him on high,
because he hath known My name.
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him:
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him,
and honour him.
With long life will I satisfy him,
and shew him My salvation."

Psalm 147:3-4 "He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. He telleth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names."

I just see this verse as a reminder daily of how awesome God really is. There's nothing in the world that can heal a broken heart. A lot of earthly things may put a band-aid over it and mask it. But nothing in the world can really heal a broken heart except our awesome and amazing God. And with the stars, that's just unfathomable. On a really clear night, if I looked up and saw all of the stars, I wouldn't be able to count even 1/10th of them. But God counts the ones I see from my back yard, the ones you see from yours...he sees them all. And not only does He know how many there are, but He has a specific name for each of them. God is awesome... Diana Hannen

Luke 8:39 "Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him."

Notice, how Jesus said, "Go and tell what God has done unto you, and the man ran his way and told the "WHOLE CITY" what "JESUS" has done. Now, think about it, Jesus told him to tell everyone what "GOD" has done, and the man did exactly what he was told to do. By using the name of the Lord to crowds, we are sharing what God has done for us. If I said, "Jesus has healed me and has done great things," it is the same as saying "God has healed me, and has done great things. Psalm 118:26 "Blessed be He that cometh in the name of the LORD": This is why this is my favorite verse, because its shows the great name of the Lord. A-men!! Joel A.

John 15:12 "This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you." George Underhill

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."

The road to success is not straight. There is a curve called Failure, a loop called Confusion, speed bumps called Friends, red lights called enemies, caution lights called Family. You will have flats called Jobs. But, if you have a spare called Determination, an engine called Perseverance, insurance called Faith, a driver called Jesus, you will make it to a place called Success. Lisa Habib

Ecclesiastes 8:11 Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

This is my favorite because it reminds me that I am held accountable for my actions, even when no one is looking and that when it seems that people are getting away with the evil that they do, there will be a reckoning. Richiey Hayes

Ephesians 6:10-17 "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:"

1 Timothy 4:12 "Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity." Julia Roper

Phillipians 3:13-14 "Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." Daniel Almquist
