Acts 16:11-15
(11) Setting sail therefore from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and the day following to Neapolis; (12) and from there to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the foremost of the district, a Roman colony. We were staying some days in this city. (13) On the Sabbath day we went outside of the city by a riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer, and we sat down, and spoke to the women who had come together. (14) A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us; whose heart the Lord opened to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul. (15) When she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and stay.” So she persuaded us.
Psalms 149:1-6,9
(1) Praise Yahweh! Sing to Yahweh a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints. (2) Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. (3) Let them praise his name in the dance! Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp! (4) For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation. (5) Let the saints rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds. (6) May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand; (9) to execute on them the written judgment. All his saints have this honor. Praise Yah!
John 15:26-16:4
(26) “When the Counselor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me. (27) You will also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning. (1) “I have said these things to you so that you wouldn’t be caused to stumble. (2) They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time comes that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God. (3) They will do these things because they have not known the Father, nor me. (4) But I have told you these things, so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
