The steps of a good man are led by the Lord. And He is happy in his way. (Psalms 37:23 NLV)

HOSPITALITY

For sure, I tell you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name because you belong to Christ will not lose his reward from God. (Mark 9:41 NLV)

HELP THE NEEDY AMONG YOU

What if a Christian does not have clothes or food? And one of you says to him, “Goodbye, keep yourself warm and eat well.” But if you do not give him what he needs, how does that help him? (James 2:15-16 NLV)

JEALOUSY

‘Do not have a desire for your neighbor’s wife. Do not desire your neighbor’s house, his field, his man servant, his bull, his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.’ (Deuteronomy 5:21 NLV)

BE WILLING AND OBEDIENT

If you are willing and obedient,
You shall eat the good of the land; (Isaiah 1:19 NKJV)

FEAR THE LORD

You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord;
He is their help and their shield... He will bless those who fear the Lord,
Both small and great. (Psalms 115:11 & 13 NKJV)

SEEKING GOD

The Lord is with you when you are with Him. If you look for Him, He will let you find Him. But if you leave Him, He will leave you. (2 Chronicles 15:2 NLV)

SELF-DENIAL

Those of us who belong to Christ have nailed our sinful old selves on His cross. Our sinful desires are now dead. (Galatians 5:24 NLV)

FRUITFULNESS

“I am the true Vine. My Father is the One Who cares for the Vine. He takes away any branch in Me that does not give fruit. Any branch that gives fruit, He cuts it back so it will give more fruit. You are made clean by the words I have spoken to you. Get your life from Me and I will live in you. No branch can give fruit by itself. It has to get life from the vine. You are able to give fruit only when you have life from Me. I am the Vine and you are the branches. Get your life from Me. Then I will live in you and you will give much fruit. You can do nothing without Me. (John 15:1-5 NLV)

For He will tell His angels to care for you and keep you in all your ways. (Psalms 91:10-11 NLV)

PEACE

I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. (1 Timothy 2:1-2 NLT)

DO NOT FORGET TO ENTERTAIN STRANGERS

Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. (Hebrews 13:2 NIV)

BEAUTY

Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. (1 Peter 3:3-4 NIV)

FORGIVE OTHERS

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. (Matthew 6:14-15 NIV)

MANY ADVISERS MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE

For lack of guidance a nation falls,
but victory is won through many advisers. (Proverbs 11:14 NIV)

TWO ARE BETTER THAN ONE

Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their labor: (Ecclesiastes 4:9 NIV)

A gift opens the way
and ushers the giver into the presence of the great. (Proverbs 18:16 NIV)

THE LORD'S SERVANT

Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. (2 Timothy 4:2 NIV)

THE LORD IS THE FIRST AND THE LAST, THE ONLY GOD

The Lord, who rules and protects Israel,
the Lord Almighty, has this to say:
“I am the first, the last, the only God;
there is no other god but me.
Could anyone else have done what I did?
Who could have predicted all that would happen
from the very beginning to the end of time?
Do not be afraid, my people!
You know that from ancient times until now
I have predicted all that would happen,
and you are my witnesses.
Is there any other god?
Is there some powerful god I never heard of?”
(Isaiah 44:6-8 GNT)

LOVE THE LORD

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Never forget these commands that I am giving you today. Teach them to your children. Repeat them when you are at home and when you are away, when you are resting and when you are working. Tie them on your arms and wear them on your foreheads as a reminder. Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates. (Deuteronomy 6:5-9 GNT)
