Job 23:12

I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.

“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.

Also delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.

so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.

You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

“In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

“Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.

Oh taste and see that Yahweh is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.

This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.

As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you don’t need for anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, you will remain in him.

Direct me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in them.

What the wicked fear, will overtake them, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.

The works of his hands are truth and justice. All his precepts are sure.

For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and doesn’t doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening; he shall have whatever he says.

Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them.

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

For then you will delight yourself in the Almighty, and will lift up your face to God.

and said, “Most certainly I tell you, unless you turn, and become as little children, you will in no way enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,

For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.

Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.

Only be careful, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes saw, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life; but make them known to your children and your children’s children—

Unless your law had been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction.

I have taken your testimonies as a heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart.

The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple.

“In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.

speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

I have written to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

These words, which I command you today, shall be on your heart;

I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous; because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.

I know that you are Abraham’s offspring, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.

but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him who is the head, Christ,

The law of his God is in his heart. None of his steps shall slide.

Praise Yah! Blessed is the man who fears Yahweh, who delights greatly in his commandments.

Then your light will break out as the morning, and your healing will appear quickly; then your righteousness shall go before you, and Yahweh’s glory will be your rear guard.

For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.

I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”

I fed you with milk, not with meat; for you weren’t yet ready. Indeed, you aren’t ready even now,

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.”

How I love your law! It is my meditation all day.

He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him. He also will hear their cry, and will save them.

He taught me, and said to me: “Let your heart retain my words. Keep my commandments, and live.

For wisdom is better than rubies. All the things that may be desired can’t be compared to it.

Why should you be like a scared man, as a mighty man who can’t save? Yet you, Yahweh, are in the middle of us, and we are called by your name. Don’t leave us.

For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.

Your statutes stand firm. Holiness adorns your house, Yahweh, forever more.

Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path.

I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

that no one would be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed to this task.

Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.

but his delight is in Yahweh’s law. On his law he meditates day and night.

The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.

Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.

He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn’t left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.”

Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.

Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.

How sweet are your promises to my taste, more than honey to my mouth!

Your words were found, and I ate them. Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by your name, Yahweh, God of Armies.

Give us today our daily bread.

Please receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart.

They are more to be desired than gold, yes, than much fine gold, sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.

I have rejoiced in the way of your testimonies, as much as in all riches.

For wisdom will enter into your heart. Knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.

The lips of the righteous feed many, but the foolish die for lack of understanding.

But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”

Jesus therefore said to those Jews who had believed him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.

For I delight in God’s law after the inward man,

Food was set before him to eat, but he said, “I will not eat until I have told my message.” Laban said, “Speak on.”

for so was it commanded me by Yahweh’s word, saying, ‘You shall eat no bread, drink no water, and don’t return by the way that you came.’ ”

Then Ezra rose up from before God’s house, and went into the room of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib. When he came there, he ate no bread, nor drank water; for he mourned because of their trespass of the captivity.

All the people went their way to eat, to drink, to send portions, and to celebrate, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.

Let still be my consolation, yes, let me exult in pain that doesn’t spare, that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.

I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.

Therefore I love your commandments more than gold, yes, more than pure gold.

Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me. Your commandments are my delight.

My son, if you will receive my words, and store up my commandments within you,

Remove far from me falsehood and lies. Give me neither poverty nor riches. Feed me with the food that is needful for me,

He said to me, “Son of man, cause your belly to eat, and fill your bowels with this scroll that I give you.” Then I ate it; and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.

The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?

then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he isn’t expecting him, and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.

strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many afflictions we must enter into God’s Kingdom.

Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.

I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little book. He said to me, “Take it, and eat it. It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.”

as newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the Word, that with it you may grow,

They went out from us, but they didn’t belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us. But they left, that they might be revealed that none of them belong to us.
