Coming over to us (the prophet Agabus), took Paul's belt, tied his own hands, and feet with it and said, "The Holy Spirit says, 'In this way the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem will bind the owner of this belt, and hand him over to the Gentiles.'"

When we heard this, we and the people there pleaded with Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.

Then Paul answered, "Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus." When he would not be dissuaded, we gave up and said, "The Lord's Will be done." (Acts 21:11-14)

"Dear friends (Believers and servants of Jesus), do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal (troubles) that have come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.

But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when His glory is revealed.

If you are insulted (by the world) because of the name of Christ, you are blessed; for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you."

(Jesus was hungry) Seeing a fig tree by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then Jesus said to the tree, "May you never bear fruit again!" Immediately the tree withered.

When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. "How did the fig tree wither so quickly?" they asked.

Jesus replied, "Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree; but you can say to this mountain; 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done.

If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."

"I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them.

For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people." (Romans 16:17-18)

"Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

For all that is in the world; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life; is not of the Father but is of the world.

And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the Will of God abides forever." (1 John 2:15-17)

"Be very careful, then, how you live; not as unwise..., but as wise,

making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.

Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's Will is.

Do not be drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the (Holy) Spirit,

speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord (Jesus),

always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ." (Ephesians 5:15-20)

"For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord Jesus. Live as children of light,

(for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth),

and find out what pleases the Lord.

Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.

It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.

But everything exposed by the light becomes visible...., and everything that is illuminated becomes light." (Ephesians 5:8-13)

"What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desires that battle with you?

You desire but do not have..., so you kill. You covey but you cannot get what you want..., so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God.

When you ask (God), you do not receive; because you ask with wrong motives (for God sees your heart) that you may spend what you get (you are asking God for).., on your own (worldly) pleasures."

"Follow God's example, therefore, as dearly loved children,

and walk in the way of love, just as Jesus loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immortality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people.

Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or course joking, which are out of place; but rather give thanks to God." (Ephesians 5:1-4)
