"For
what advantage is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and
is himself destroyed or lost?" (Luke 9:25)
"Fear
not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name;
you are Mine." (Isa. 43:1)
"You
prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You
anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over." (Ps. 23:5)
"...I
have even called you by your name; I have given titles to you
though you have not known Me." (Isa.45:4)
"For
your Maker is your husband, the Lord of hosts is His name; and
your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the God
of the whole earth. For the LORD has called you like a
woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, like a youthful wife when
you were refused," says your God. (Isaiah 54:5-6)
"Their
descendants shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring
among the people. All who see them shall acknowledge them,
that they are the posterity whom the Lord has blessed.
I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful
in my God; for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation,
He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom
decks himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorns herself
with her jewels. For as the earth brings forth its bud,
as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring
forth, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to
spring forth before all the nations." (Isaiah 61:9-11)
"The
Gentiles shall see your righteousness, and all kings your glory.
You shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD
will name. You shall also be a crown of glory in the hand
of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. You
shall no longer be termed Forsaken, nor shall your land any
more be termed Desolate; but you shall be called Hephzibah,
and your land Beulah; for the LORD delights in you, and your
land shall be married." (Isaiah 62:2-4)
"I
am the LORD, and there is no other, there is no God besides
Me, I will gird you, though you have not known Me, 'that they
may know from the rising of the sun to its setting that there
is none besides Me. I am the LORD, and there is no other."
(Isa. 45:5-6)
"
The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, my enemies
and foes, they stumbled and fell. Though an army should
encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; Though war should
rise against me, in this I will be confident." (Ps. 27:1-3)
"But
as it is writsten: "Eye has not seen, not ear heard, nor
have entered into the heart of man the things which God prepared
for those who love Him" (I Cor. 2:9)
"But
indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the
knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered
the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may
gain Christ." (Psalm 121:3-4)
