He will bring upon you all the diseases of Egypt that you dreaded, and they will cling to you.
Deuteronomy Chapter 28: Verse 60
Hear the word of the LORD, you Israelites, because the LORD has a charge to bring against you who live in the land: "There is no faithfulness, no love, no acknowledgment of God in the land.
There is only cursing, lying and murder, stealing and adultery; they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.
Because of this the land mourns, and all who live in it waste away; the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the fish of the sea are dying.
Hosea Chapter 4: Verses 1 - 3
If you falter in times of trouble, how small is your strength!
Proverbs Chapter 24: Verse 10
Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,
1 Timothy Chapter 3: Verse 2
Why do you boast of your valleys, boast of your valleys so fruitful? O unfaithful daughter, you trust in your riches and say, 'Who will attack me?'
Jeremiah Chapter 49: Verse 4
Behold, the joyful day is nigh,
And angels' voices from on high
Proclaim the news in early morn
That the Good Shepherd now is born.
In quiet splendor forth He comes,
The scattered sheep and tender lambs
To gather, and their fold prepare
With all a shepherd's tender care.
The gentle Shepherd we behold
Who, not with silver and with gold,
But by His suffering and His death
Will save us from eternal wrath.
His Church, though small its seed may be,
Shall grow into a mighty tree.
With fruitful branches spreading o'er
The earth till time shall be no more.
Arise and shine, thy Light is come,
O humankind, O Christendom;
Thy glory and thy peace is here;
The Savior of the world draws near.
All praise and glory be to Thee;
For wisdom, power, and majesty;
And for Thy grace, and mercy, Lord,
Forever be Thy Name adored.
