Scriptures To Think About

Tonight I feel like I should just post some scriptures. Read them...think about them...let them soak into your soul. There is nothing that can help you like the Word of the Lord!!  It is all powerful!! Ask the Lord to speak to you through His Word as you read these.

Deuteronomy 30:6



 6 “The Lord your God will change your heart and the hearts of all your descendants, so that you will love him with all your heart and soul and so you may live!

Deuteronomy 30:10


10 The Lord your God will delight in you if you obey his voice and keep the commands and decrees written in this Book of Instruction, and if you turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and soul.

Deuteronomy 30:19-20


19 “Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live! 20 You can make this choice by loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and committing yourself firmly to him. This is the key to your life.


1 Samuel 16:7b
7 The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”


Job 22:21-28

 21 “Submit to God, and you will have peace;
      then things will go well for you.
 22 Listen to his instructions,
      and store them in your heart.
 23 If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored—
      so clean up your life.
 24 If you give up your lust for money
      and throw your precious gold into the river,
 25 the Almighty himself will be your treasure.
      He will be your precious silver!
 26 “Then you will take delight in the Almighty
      and look up to God.
 27 You will pray to him, and he will hear you,
      and you will fulfill your vows to him.
 28 You will succeed in whatever you choose to do,
      and light will shine on the road ahead of you.


Psalm 18:30
30 God’s way is perfect.
      All the Lord’s promises prove true.
      He is a shield for all who look to him for protection.


Psalm 86:5-7 & 15


 5 O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
      so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
 6 Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
      hear my urgent cry.
 7 I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
      and you will answer me.
15 But you, O Lord,
      are a God of compassion and mercy,
   slow to get angry
      and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness.


Psalm 105:4
Search for the Lord and for his strength;
      continually seek him.


Isaiah 55:6-7

 6 Seek the Lord while you can find him.
      Call on him now while he is near.
 7 Let the wicked change their ways
      and banish the very thought of doing wrong.
   Let them turn to the Lord that he may have mercy on them.
      Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously.



Isaiah 55:10-11

 10 “The rain and snow come down from the heavens
      and stay on the ground to water the earth.
   They cause the grain to grow,
      producing seed for the farmer
      and bread for the hungry.
 11 It is the same with my word.
      I send it out, and it always produces fruit.
   It will accomplish all I want it to,
      and it will prosper everywhere I send it.
