Last month I shared inspirational quotes that help to positively influence the times of which we are living in. This month I want to offer you scripture that can absolutely change the way we are living through this time. I had the pleasure of attending a webinar of some ethnic United Methodist Bishops and they shared such scriptures. May the word of God bless you abundantly.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1.7)

Bishop Cynthia Fierro Harvey

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end. (Jeremiah 29.11)

Bishop LaTrelle Easterling

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. (1 Corinthians 13:1-3)

Bishop Calvin Trimble

How long wilt Thou forget me, O Lord? For ever? How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?… But I have trusted in Thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation. I will sing unto the Lord, because He hath dealt bountifully with me. (Psalm 13: 1,5-6)

Bishop Cynthia Moore-Koikoi

Beloved, now we are the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be; but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. (1 John 3.2)

Bishop Gregory Palmer
