1 Samuel 12:22-24

The Voice

²² For the sake of His reputation, He will not cast away His chosen people. Before you ever chose Him, the Eternal One chose you as His own because it pleased Him.

²³ As for me, the last thing I would ever do is to stop praying for you. That would be a sin against the Eternal One on my part. I will always try to teach you to live and act in a way that is good and proper in His eyes. ²⁴ Make this your one purpose: to revere Him and serve Him faithfully with complete devotion because He has done great things for you.
