At that time Jesus went up a hill to pray and spent the whole night there praying to God.

Jesus called the twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases.

One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life.

The sin of the Jews brought rich blessings to the world, and their spiritual poverty brought rich blessings to the Gentiles. Then, how much greater the blessings will be when the complete number of Jews is included!

everyone has sinned and is far away from God's saving presence.

I do not understand what I do; for I don't do what I would like to do, but instead I do what I hate.

We also boast of our troubles, because we know that trouble produces endurance,

We know that in all things God works for good with those who love him, those whom he has called according to his purpose.

For this reason we never become discouraged. Even though our physical being is gradually decaying, yet our spiritual being is renewed day after day.
