1 Timothy 1:1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope. 

My ministry and contribution to The kingdom is assigned by the Lord and at His command. May I fulfill His calling on my life. 

Romans 10:8-9 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Jesus IS Lord! And I believe that God rose Him from the dead! Thank You, Jesus, for saving me!!!

1 Thessalonians 4:17-18 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words.

Christ’s second coming is not just a theological fact; it should be a source of great encouragement. 

Romans 8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

When I worry about the future, am I demonstrating that I am not completely convinced? Lord, may I never doubt this truth!

1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

This is our hope! Come Lord Jesus. 

Romans 6:14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.

Praise the Lord that I am under grace! Thank You, Father, for rescuing me from the grave!

1 Thessalonians 4:11 and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you,

May my ambition be to live a quiet life and to mind my own business. 

Romans 5:6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.

God loves us and carries us at just the right time.

1 Thessalonians 4:9 Now about your love for one another we do not need to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love each other.

God, would You personally teach me to love others?!

Romans 4:18 Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.”

Against all hope, Abraham still believed. Father, may I still believe when all hope is lost.
