O Christian,
Do you desire the abundant life?
“Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace and pursue it.”
——— Psalm 34 ———
“I will bless the LORD at all times;�HIS praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul shall make its boast in the LORD;�The humble shall hear of it and be glad.
Oh, magnify the LORD with me,�And let us exalt HIS name together.
I sought the LORD, and HE heard me,�And delivered me from all my fears.
They looked to HIM and were radiant,�And their faces were not ashamed.
This poor man cried out, and the LORD heard him,�And saved him out of all his troubles.
The angel of the LORD encamps all around those who fear HIM,�And delivers them.
Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good;�Blessed is the man who trusts in HIM!
Oh, fear the LORD, you HIS saints!�There is no want to those who fear HIM.
The young lions lack and suffer hunger;�But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
Come, you children, listen to me;�I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
Who is the man who desires life,�And loves many days, that he may see good?
Keep your tongue from evil,�And your lips from speaking deceit.
Depart from evil and do good;�Seek peace and pursue it.
The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous,�And HIS ears are open to their cry.
The face of the LORD is against those who do evil,�To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears,�And delivers them out of all their troubles.
The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart,�And saves such as have a contrite spirit.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous,�But the LORD delivers him out of them all.
He guards all his bones;�Not one of them is broken.
Evil shall slay the wicked,�And those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
The LORD redeems the soul of HIS servants,�And none of those who trust in HIM shall be condemned.”
NKJV
