Welcome to our Thursday Bible Verse Challenge, Truth from A to Z. Today is the beginning and we are on the letter A. Next Thursday the 17th of September we will be on the letter B…and so on.
A if for Alpha and the Almighty
Revelation 1:8 (ESV)
“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
From Winney B: A is for Authority
Matthew 7: 28-29 And so it was, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the people were astonished at His teaching, 29 for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
Bethany from Raindrops and Rainbows has joined the challenge. Click over and visit her post for the letter A to see her verse and thoughts!
From Bethany: A is for All
For ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23
From Patsystitch: A is for Abound
Romans 15:13. Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound
In hope through the power of the Holy Ghost.
From Jan C: A is for Ancient of Days-
Daniel 7:9
“As I looked,
thrones were set in place,
and the Ancient of Days took his seat.
His clothing was as white as snow;
the hair of his head was white like wool.
From my sister Vera: A is for Ashamed, ages, appearing, abolished, appointed, apostle
2 Tim 1:8-12 Therefore do not be ASHAMED of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me his prisoner but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God, who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the AGES began, and which now has been manifested through the APPEARING of our Savior Christ Jesus, who ABOLISHED death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, for which I was APPOINTED a preacher and APOSTLE and teacher, which is why I suffer as I do. But I am not ASHAMED, for I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard until that day what has been entrusted to me.
From Anneliese: A is for Ask
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”
Matthew 7:7
From Cindy: A is for Awesome
Exodus 15:11 – Who is like you Lord? Majestic in holiness, AWESOME in glory, working wonders?
From Gloria: A is for Ascribe
Ascribe to the Lord the glory due to his name. Worship the Lord in holy array. Psalm 29:2
From Paul: A is for and All
But seek first His Kingdom and His Righteousness *and all* these things will be given to you as well! Mt 6:33
From Maristella: A if for Afraid
“When I am* Afraid*, I put my trust in you.”
Psalm 56:3 | NIV
