will not slumber. 4 Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor
sleep. 5 The Lord is your

night. 7 The Lord will
protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul. 8 The
Lord will guard your going out
and your coming in from this time forth and forever.
Temptation
Hebrews 12:1-4 1
Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let
us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles
us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 fixing
our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of faith, who for the joy set
before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the
right hand of the throne of God. 3 For consider Him who has endured such
hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and
lose heart. 4 You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in
your striving against sin.
Our words/Sin

place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am,
there you may be also.
