From; GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper,
that He may be with you forever. [John 14:16]

Isaiah 66:1–2 (CJB) 1 “Heaven is my throne,” says
Adonai, “and the earth is
my footstool. What kind of house
could you build for me? What sort of place could you devise for my rest? 2
Didn’t I myself make all these things? This is how they all came to be,” says Adonai. “The kind of person on whom
I look with favor is one with a poor and humble spirit, who trembles at my
word.
Acts 7:44–56 (AMP) 44 Our forefathers had
the tent (tabernacle) of witness in the wilderness, even as He Who directed
Moses to make it had ordered, according to the pattern and model he had
seen. 45 Our forefathers in turn brought it [this tent of witness]
in [with them into the land] with Joshua when they dispossessed the nations
which God drove out before the face of our forefathers. [So it remained here]
until the time of David, 46 Who found grace (favor and spiritual
blessing) in the sight of God and prayed that he might be allowed to find a
dwelling place for the God of Jacob. 47 But it was Solomon who built
a house for Him. 48 However,
the Most High does not dwell in houses and temples made with hands; as
the prophet says, 49 Heaven [is] My throne, and earth the footstool
for My feet. What [kind of] house can you build for Me, says the Lord, or what
is the place in which I can rest? 50 Was it not My hand that
made all these things? 51 You stubborn and stiff-necked
people, still heathen and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you are
always actively resisting the Holy Spirit. As your forefathers [were], so you
[are and so you do]! 52 Which of the prophets did your forefathers
not persecute? And they slew those who proclaimed beforehand the coming of the
Righteous One, Whom you now have betrayed and murdered— 53 You who
received the Law as it was ordained and set in order and
delivered by angels, and [yet] you did not obey it! 54 Now upon
hearing these things, they [the Jews] were cut to the heart and
infuriated, and they ground their teeth against [Stephen]. 55 But
he, full of the Holy Spirit and controlled by Him, gazed into heaven and
saw the glory (the splendor and majesty) of God, and Jesus standing at God’s
right hand; 56 And he said, Look! I see the heavens opened, and the
Son of man standing at God’s right hand!
James 3:1–18 (The Living Bible) 1 Dear
brothers, don’t be too eager to tell others their faults, for we all make many
mistakes; and when we teachers of religion, who should know better, do wrong,
our punishment will be greater than it would be for others. If anyone can
control his tongue, it proves that he has perfect control over himself in every
other way. 3 We can make a large horse turn around and go wherever
we want by means of a small bit in his mouth. 4 And a tiny rudder
makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot wants it to go, even though the winds
are strong. 5 So also the tongue is a small thing, but what enormous
damage it can do. A great forest can be set on fire by one tiny spark. 6
And the tongue is a flame of fire. It is full of wickedness, and poisons every
part of the body. And the tongue is set on fire by hell itself and can turn our
whole lives into a blazing flame of destruction and disaster. 7 Men
have trained, or can train, every kind of animal or bird that lives and every
kind of reptile and fish, 8 but no human being can tame the tongue.
It is always ready to pour out its deadly poison. 9 Sometimes it
praises our heavenly Father, and sometimes it breaks out into curses against
men who are made like God. 10 And so blessing and cursing come
pouring out of the same mouth. Dear brothers, surely this is not right! 11
Does a spring of water bubble out first with fresh water and then with bitter
water? 12 Can you pick olives from a fig tree, or figs from a grape
vine? No, and you can’t draw fresh water from a salty pool. 13 If
you are wise, live a life of steady goodness so that only good deeds will pour
forth. And if you don’t brag about them, then you will be truly wise! 14
And by all means don’t brag about being wise and good if you are bitter and
jealous and selfish; that is the worst sort of lie. 15 For jealousy
and selfishness are not God’s kind of wisdom. Such things are earthly,
unspiritual, inspired by the devil. 16 For wherever there is
jealousy or selfish ambition, there will be disorder and every other kind of
evil. 17 But the wisdom that
comes from heaven is first of all pure and full of quiet gentleness. Then it is
peace-loving and courteous. It allows discussion and is willing to yield to
others; it is full of mercy and good deeds. It is wholehearted and
straightforward and sincere. 18 And those who are peacemakers
will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of goodness.

Living God to give you the interpretation.
2 Peter 1:16–21
(Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
