True Devotion to the lord

Hebrews 10:19-22 “Therefore, brethren, having boldness

to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, 21 and having a High Priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.”

Hebrews 10:23-25 “Let us hold fast the confession of

our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, 25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.”

Psalm 142:1-4“I cry out to the Lord with my voice; With my voice to the Lord I make my supplication. 2 I pour out my complaint before Him; I declare before Him my trouble. 3 When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, Then You knew my path. In the way in which I walk They have secretly set a snare for me. 4 Look on my right hand and see, For there is no one who acknowledges me; Refuge has failed me; No one cares for my soul.

Psalm 142:5-7

 “I cried out to You, O Lord: I said, ‘You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living. 6 Attend to my cry, For I am brought very low; Deliver me from my persecutors, For they are stronger than I. 7 Bring my soul out of prison, That I may praise Your name; The righteous shall surround me, For You shall deal bountifully with me.’”

Psalm 27:1-31 “The LORD is my light and my

salvation;Whom shall I fear?The LORD is the strength of my life;Of whom shall I be afraid?

2 When the wicked came against meTo eat up my flesh,My enemies and foes,They stumbled and fell.

3 Though an army may encamp against me,My heart shall not fear;Though war may rise against me,In this I will be confident.”

Psalm 27:4-5 4 One thing I have desired of the

LORD,That will I seek:That I may dwell in the house of the LORDAll the days of my life,To behold the beauty of the LORD,And to inquire in His temple.

5 For in the time of troubleHe shall hide me in His pavilion;In the secret place of His tabernacleHe shall hide me;He shall set me high upon a rock.

Psalm 27:6-8 6 “And now my head shall be lifted

up above my enemies all around me;Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice!Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

8 When You said, “Seek My face,”My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I will seek.”

Psalm 27:9-10 9 “Do not hide Your face from

me;Do not turn Your servant away in anger;You have been my help;Do not leave me nor forsake me,O God of my salvation.

10 When my father and my mother forsake me,Then the LORD will take care of me.”

“Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?”

17 So He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”

18 He said to Him, “Which ones?”Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder,’ ‘You

shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’
