Mark 4:28

For it is God who works in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure.

for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ,

who will also confirm you until the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Yahweh will fulfill that which concerns me. Your loving kindness, Yahweh, endures forever. Don’t forsake the works of your own hands.

But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

For he will be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but its leaf will be green, and will not be concerned in the year of drought. It won’t cease from yielding fruit.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.

so that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense to the day of Christ,

I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,

Therefore don’t throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.

I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,

looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

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

They will still produce fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green,

His master saw that Yahweh was with him, and that Yahweh made all that he did prosper in his hand.

Life will be clearer than the noonday. Though there is darkness, it will be as the morning.

You will also decree a thing, and it will be established to you. Light will shine on your ways.

that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,

The keeper of the prison didn’t look after anything that was under his hand, because Yahweh was with him; and that which he did, Yahweh made it prosper.

For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you.

Tell the righteous “Good!” For they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.

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.

When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.

Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!

I said in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.”

and they will spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses.

in the middle of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still.”

Yahweh God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand, and also take of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever—”

yet through the scent of water it will bud, and sprout boughs like a plant.

The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

then I saw all the work of God, that man can’t find out the work that is done under the sun, because however much a man labors to seek it out, yet he won’t find it. Yes even though a wise man thinks he can comprehend it, he won’t be able to find it.

Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek Yahweh, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.

“Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in Yahweh, your God; for he gives you the early rain in just measure, and he causes the rain to come down for you, the early rain and the latter rain, as before.

Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

As therefore you received Christ Jesus, the Lord, walk in him,

remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labor of love and perseverance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father.

Yet the righteous will hold to his way. He who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.

But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever.

Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!” Immediately the fig tree withered away.

When the season for the fruit came near, he sent his servants to the farmers, to receive his fruit.

Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”

You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.

Let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.

Rain, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, Yahweh, have created it.

For Zion’s sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness shines out like the dawn, and her salvation like a burning lamp.

Those who are wise will shine as the brightness of the expanse. Those who turn many to righteousness will shine as the stars forever and ever.

Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.

Now thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and reveals through us the sweet aroma of his knowledge in every place.

But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

There will be no night, and they need no lamp light or sun light; for the Lord God will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever.

Blessed are those who do his commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.

But the path of the righteous is like the dawning light that shines more and more until the perfect day.

For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven:

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in their hearts, yet so that man can’t find out the work that God has done from the beginning even to the end.

For as the earth produces its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring up, so the Lord Yahweh will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.
