The promise of the Father
"You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses."
Where heaven leans in
"God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."
Open hands, open heaven
"Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down…"
Forgiveness as authority
"Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors."
Binding and loosing
"Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven…"
The favour that finds you
"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."
Prophetic clarity
"Where there is no vision, the people perish."
Sharpening the soul
"Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness…"
Sabbath as warfare
"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
Carried by the King
"As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you."
Not just a teacher — the Throne
"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me."
The transaction of the Cross
"He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree."
Already here, still coming
"The kingdom of God is in your midst."
Old you is legally dead
"If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away."
Sent by the King
"We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us."
You are wanted
"See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God."
Sonship over servitude
"You received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, 'Abba! Father!'"
You are never alone
"I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever."
Recognising His voice
"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."
Character He grows in you
"The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness…"
Power for the mission
"To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good."
Everything of the Father is yours
"If children, then heirs — heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ."
You carry both crown and altar
"You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation."
The name above every name
"God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name."
A city on a hill
"You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden."
Coming home fast
"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
A public grave for the old you
"We were buried with him by baptism into death…"
Remembering with your mouth
"Do this in remembrance of me."
Not a textbook — a Person speaking
"The word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword."
No one snatches you out
"No one will snatch them out of my hand."
