Let us give thanks to the gracious and merciful God, the Father of our Lord, God and Saviour Jesus Christ, for He has protected, assisted, preserved and accepted us, had compassion upon us, supported us and brought us till this hour. Let us also ask Him the Almighty God, to keep us in peace this blessed day, and all the days of our life. O Lord, Master and Almighty God, the Father of our Lord, God and Saviour Jesus Christ, we thank You on every occasion, in every condition and for all things, for You have protected, assisted, preserved, accepted us, had compassion upon us, supported us and brought us till this hour. Therefore, we ask and appeal to Your goodness, O Lover-of-mankind that You grant us to conclude this blessed day and all the days of our life in peace and in Your fear. All envy, all temptation, all works of Satan, all intrigues of the wicked; rising up of enemies, seen and unseen; do cast away from us and all your people, and from this Holy place. Grant us the endowments and benefactions, as You have given us the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, through the grace, mercy and love of mankind of Your only begotten Son, our Lord God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Glory, honour, dominion and worship are due to You together with Him and the Life- Giving and consubstantial Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.

Do not put your trust in princes, in mortal man in whom there is no salvation. When his spirit departs he returns to the ground and on that very same day his plans come to nothing. But blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, the maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them. He remains faithful forever.. (Psalm 146:3-6)

Do not fear those who kill the body but afterwards can do no more. But fear Him who has the authority to destroy both soul and body in eternal fire... (Matthew 10:28)

The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eye is good, your whole body will be filled with light. But if your eye is evil, then your whole body will be filled with darkness. If the light that is within you is darkness, then how great is that darkness.. (Matthew 6:22-23)

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give unto you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled; nor let it be fearful.. (John 14:27)

No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other or he be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. (Matthew 6:24)

I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God has no life. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world and I chose you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you...

For where two or three are gathered in My name, there I am amongst them... (Matthew 18:20)

Love sinners but reject their works. Do not criticise them for their sins, lest you be smitten by the same ones...

Foxes have holes and birds have nests but the son of man has no place to rest... (Luke 9:58)

But whoever touches you, touches the apple of My eye.. (Zechariah 2:8)

You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures... (James 4:3)

You Are My Hiding Place

Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits... Matthew 7:15-16

"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction and there are many who enter through it. But the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life and there are few who find it.. (Matthew 7:13-14)

"Love is the greatest of all treasures. Without it there is nothing and with it there is everything. It is love alone that gives worth to all things.."

... how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings.. (Isaiah 52:7)
