Ephesians 6:10-13 – "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore, put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand."

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you."

Matthew 25:14-18 – "Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them.

But the man who had received one bag went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money."
