Delight yourself in the Lord, and
he will give you the desires of
your heart.
(Psalm 37:4)
ESV
Send out your light and your
truth; let them lead me; let them
bring me to your holy hill and to
your dwelling! Then I will go to
the altar of God, to God my
exceeding joy, and I will praise
you with the lyre, O God, my God.
Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within
me? Hope in God; for I shall again
praise him, my salvation and my
God.
(Psalm 43:3-5)
ESV
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon
me, because the Lord has anointed
me to bring good news to the poor;
he has sent me to bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty
to the captives, and the opening
of the prison to those who are
bound;
(Isaiah 61:1)
ESV
He said also to the man who had
invited him, “When you give a
dinner or a banquet, do not invite
your friends or your brothers or
your relatives or rich neighbors,
lest they also invite you in
return and you be repaid. But when
you give a feast, invite the poor,
the crippled, the lame, the blind,
and you will be blessed, because
they cannot repay you. For you
will be repaid at the resurrection
of the just.”
(Luke 14:12-14)
ESV
Just
so, I tell you, there will be more
joy in heaven over one sinner who
repents than over ninety-nine
righteous persons who need no
repentance.
(Luke 15:7) ESV
Just so, I tell you, there is joy
before the angels of God over one
sinner who repents.
(Luke 15:10)
ESV1
