Scripture Isaiah 43:10-12 (NKJV)
10 “You are My witnesses,” says the Lord, “And My servant whom I
have chosen, That you may know and believe Me, And understand that
I am He. Before Me there was no God formed, Nor shall there be
after Me. 11 I, even I, am the Lord, And besides Me there is no
savior. 12 I have declared and saved, I have proclaimed, And there
was no foreign god among you; Therefore you are My witnesses,” Says
the Lord, “that I am God.
1 Timothy 4:11-14 11 These things command and teach. 12 Let no
one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word,
in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 13 Till I
come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 14 Do
not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by
prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.
