Isaiah 57:15
For thus says the One who is high and lifted up who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite. The Creator of the Universe is holy, which means He is set apart from humanity. Unfortunately, it’s our sin that separates us from fellowship with Him. Which is why God generously established a way for us to be able to come into His presence. And it’s through His Son Jesus that we now have forgiveness and fellowship with God through repentance and faith.

John 13:17
If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. Jesus was so good at showing His love through His actions. And He wanted His disciples to follow in His footsteps. Which is why the night before He went to the cross, He washed their feet. And when you’re willing to serve others with your actions the same way Jesus did, you’re reflecting His heart to those around you in a powerful way.

James 2:26
For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead. As long as God gives you breath in your lungs, He has good works for you to do. Now, those works don't save you, salvation is found in Christ alone. However, they do reveal that, not only is your faith genuine, but it also gives others a glimpse of the transforming power of the gospel.

Colossians 3:23-24
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. Every day, millions of people get up and go to work. But if you're working only for the approval of the people around you, you'll always be chasing the next compliment, promotion, or pat on the back. But if your goal is to honor the Lord, you can work with excellence, whether people notice or not, because you know you're ultimately serving Him.

James 1:22
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. If a person believed eating meat wasn’t good, you probably wouldn't find them eating a hot dog. If they cared deeply about protecting forests, you'd probably find them planting trees. Our actions reveal what we truly believe. The same is true of our faith. Trusting God isn't just something you say, it's something that changes the way you live.

Ezra 10:4
Arise, for it is your task, and we are with you; be strong and do it. Following God’s law wasn’t always easy, and the Israelites certainly didn’t do it perfectly. In fact, there were many times they fell woefully short. But there were moments when they recognized their wrongdoing, humbled themselves, and obeyed the voice of the LORD. In those times, their actions revealed their faith.

Luke 5:26
And amazement seized them all, and they glorified God and were filled with awe, saying, ‘We have seen extraordinary things today.’ When Jesus healed the paralyzed man, the crowd was amazed. But the greatest miracle wasn't that the man walked home, it was that Jesus proclaimed his sins were forgiven. By healing him, Jesus showed everyone He wasn't just an ordinary man. He was the promised Messiah with authority not only to heal broken bodies, but to forgive broken sinners.

Psalm 68:35
Awesome is God from his sanctuary; the God of Israel—he is the one who gives power and strength to his people. Blessed be God! The word awesome has changed over the years. Today we use it to describe a great meal or a fun day. But in the Bible, the word points to something much deeper: a response of reverence, wonder, and awe in the presence of God. So, when the Psalmist refers to the awesomeness of God, make sure you know what he’s really trying to say: God is worthy of your praise.

Revelation 4:11
Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created. If you created something and someone else got all the credit for doing it, that wouldn't be right. Yet everyday people enjoy the sunrise, the mountains, the oceans, even the breath in their lungs and don’t give God the glory He deserves. So as you start your day today, let God know just how much you appreciate all He’s done and continues to do each and every day.

Hebrews 12:28-29
Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire. The earth can be shaken. We've seen it happen time and time again. But God’s Kingdom is different. It cannot be shaken because it isn’t ruled by nature’s law, it’s ruled by the very One who created nature in the first place. So today, don’t place your hope in a world that’s crumbling, place it in the One who never changes.

Psalm 33:8
Let all the earth fear the Lord; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him! When someone famous walks into a room, people can't help but stop and stare. They pull out their phones, hoping to get a picture or maybe even a moment with them. But there is One infinitely greater than any celebrity. The One who created the heavens and the earth, and He alone is worthy of our deepest awe and highest praise.

Luke 6:43-44
For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, for each tree is known by its own fruit. For figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush. If you picked an apple from a tree and it tasted bitter, you probably wouldn't go back for another. But if it was sweet and delicious, you'd keep coming back again and again. In the same way, when we surrender our lives to Christ, the Holy Spirit produces good fruit in us. And that fruit helps those around you taste and see just how good God really is.
