Envy of Others

Psalm 73:1-28 (NLT)
Truly God is good to Israel, to those whose hearts are pure.

Strength

1 Chronicles 28:20 (NLT)
Then David continued, “Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Don’t be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. He will see to it that all the work related to the Temple of the LORD is finished correctly.

Giving to God

Haggai 1:3-10 (NLT)
Then the LORD sent this message through the prophet Haggai:

Weakness

2 Corinthians 12:9 (NLT)
Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.

Giving

2 Corinthians 9:5-15 (NLT)
So I thought I should send these brothers ahead of me to make sure the gift you promised is ready. But I want it to be a willing gift, not one given grudgingly.

Giving

2 Corinthians 8:1-15 (NLT)
Now I want you to know, dear brothers and sisters, what God in his kindness has done through the churches in Macedonia.

Troubles of this World

2 Corinthians 4:8-18 (NLT)
We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair.

Crazy about God

2 Corinthians 5:11 (NLT)
Because we understand our fearful responsibility to the Lord, we work hard to persuade others. God knows we are sincere, and I hope you know this, too.

2 Corinthians 5:13-21 (NLT)
If it seems we are crazy, it is to bring glory to God. And if we are in our right minds, it is for your benefit.

Accountability

2 Corinthians 5:10 (NLT)
For we must all stand before Christ to be judged. We will each receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body.

Trouble and Endurance

2 Corinthians 6:1-13 (NLT)
As God’s partners, we beg you not to accept this marvelous gift of God’s kindness and then ignore it.
