Jeremiah 33:

 14 - 16



14"Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will fulfil the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
15In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring forth for David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will dwell securely. And this is the name by which it will be called: `The LORD is our righteousness.'
Psalms 25: 4 - 5, 8 - 10, 14

4Make me to know thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.
5Lead me in thy truth, and teach me, for thou art the God of my salvation; for thee I wait all the day long.
8Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in the way.
9He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way.
10All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep his covenant and his testimonies.
14The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant.
1 Thessalonians 3: 12 - 13

12and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another and to all men, as we do to you,
13so that he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints. -1 Thessalonians 4: 1 - 2

1Finally, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more.2For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
Luke 21: 25 - 28, 34 - 36


25"And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves,26men fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.27And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.28Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."34"But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a snare;35for it will come upon all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth.36But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of man."
