Moreover brethren I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you which also ye have received and wherein ye stand By which also ye are saved if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you unless ye have believed in vain For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures And that he was buried and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures And that he was seen of Cephas then of the twelve After that he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once of whom the greater part remain unto this present but some are fallen asleep After that he was seen of James then of all the apostles And last of all he was seen of me also as of one born out of due time

And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way others cut down branches from the trees and strawed them in the way And the multitudes that went before and that followed cried saying Hosanna to the son of David Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord Hosanna in the highest

Therefore I say unto you Take no thought for your life what ye shall eat or what ye shall drink nor yet for your body what ye shall put on Is not the life more than meat and the body than raiment Behold the fowls of the air for they sow not neither do they reap nor gather into barns yet your heavenly Father feedeth them Are ye not much better than they Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature And why take ye thought for raiment Consider the lilies of the field how they grow they toil not neither do they spin And yet I say unto you That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these

Call unto me and I will answer thee and show thee great and mighty things which thou knowest not

The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble the name of the God of Jacob defend thee Send thee help from the sanctuary and strengthen thee out of Zion Save Lord let the king hear us when we call

For the which cause I also suffer these things nevertheless I am not ashamed for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day

And they rose early in the morning and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa and as they went forth Jehoshaphat stood and said Hear me O Judah and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem Believe in the Lord your God so shall ye be established believe his prophets so shall ye prosper

And he removed from thence and digged another well and for that they strove not and he called the name of it Rehoboth and he said For now the Lord hath made room for us and we shall be fruitful in the land

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that worketh in us

For my love they are my adversaries but I give myself unto prayer

Continue in prayer and watch in the same with thanksgiving

Now therefore give me this mountain whereof the Lord spake in that day for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there and that the cities were great and fenced if so be the Lord will be with me then I shall be able to drive them out as the Lord said

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him and said unto him Thus saith the Lord Set thine house in order for thou shalt die and not live Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall and prayed unto the Lord And said Remember now O Lord I beseech thee how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart and have done that which is good in thy sight And Hezekiah wept sore Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah saying Go and say to Hezekiah Thus saith the Lord the God of David thy father I have heard thy prayer I have seen thy tears behold I will add unto thy days fifteen years

And there is hope in thine end saith the Lord that thy children shall come again to their own border

And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry and I will multiply them and they shall not be few I will also glorify them and they shall not be small

And he said also unto his disciples There was a certain rich man which had a steward and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods And he called him and said unto him How is it that I hear this of thee give an account of thy stewardship for thou mayest be no longer steward Then the steward said within himself What shall I do for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship I cannot dig to beg I am ashamed I am resolved what to do that when I am put out of the stewardship they may receive me into their houses So he called every one of his lord 039 s debtors unto him and said unto the first How much owest thou unto my lord And he said An hundred measures of oil And he said unto him Take thy bill and sit down quickly and write fifty Then said he to another And how much owest thou And he said An hundred measures of wheat And he said unto him Take thy bill and write fourscore And the lord commended the unjust steward because he had done wisely for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light And I say unto you Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness that when ye fail they may receive you into everlasting habitations He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon who will commit to your trust the true riches
