Scripture Focus

Genesis 2:1-3

The heavens and the earth and all who live in them were completed. 2 On the sixth day God completed all the work that He had done, and on the seventh day God rested from all the work that He had done. 3 God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all the work of creation.

James 4:6-7

6 But he gives us more grace. This is why it says, God stands against the proud but favors the humble. 7 Therefore, submit to God. Resist the devil, and he will run away from you.
