Bible Verse

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28)

As for you, the anointing you received from Him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as His anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit — just as it has taught you, remain in Him. (1 John 2:27)
