8The Rugged Path

great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off
everything that hinders and the sin that so
easily entangles, and let us run with
perseverance the race marked out for us. -
Hebrews 121
9Prosperity Freedom
Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders
labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the
city, the watchmen stand guard in vain. ... Sons
are a heritage from the LORD, ? children a
reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a
warrior are sons born in one's youth. Blessed is
the man whose quiver is full of them. They will
not be put to shame when they contend with their
enemies in the gate. - Psalm 127 1, 3-5
