Your Responsibility
Ps.119:37 (NIV) “Turn my eyes away from worthless things; preserve my life according to your word.”

Harmonize
Rom.8:26 And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. 27 …for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will.”

Immanuel
Ex.15:11 (KJV) “Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?”

True Dominance
Eph. 6:10 A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil.
