Job 22:21 Acquaint now yourself with Him [agree with God and show yourself to be conformed to His will] and be at peace; by that [you shall prosper and great] good shall come to you--prosperity.
22 Receive, I pray you, the law and instruction from His mouth and lay up His words in your heart.
23 If you return to the Almighty [and submit and humble yourself before Him], you will be built up [prospered]; if you put away unrighteousness [wrongdoing] far from your tents,
24 If you lay gold in the dust, and the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brook [considering them of little worth],
25 And make the Almighty your gold and [the Lord] your precious silver treasure,
26 Then you will have delight in the Almighty, and you will lift up your face to God.
27 You will make your prayer to Him, and He will hear you, and you will pay your vows.
28 You shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall be established for you; and the light [of God's favor] shall shine upon your ways.
29 When they make [you] low [discouraged], you will say, [There is] a lifting up [so cheer up]; and the humble person He lifts up and saves; makes happy.
30 He will even deliver the one [for whom you intercede] who is not innocent; yes, he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands; rescued by your purity.

A PURE Conscience--True TRUTH
"A man of conscience, is one who never acquires tolerance, well- being, success, public standing, or approval on the part of prevailing opinion; never at the expense of the truth."

PURE In Faith
Acts 26:18...
To open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may thus receive forgiveness and release from their sins and a place and portion among those who are "consecrated" and purified by faith in Me...Jesus!

God Make Us PURE and Holy...
I Corinth. 1:30
But it is from Him that you have your life in Christ Jesus, Whom God made our Wisdom [and Justification] from God, [revealed to us a knowledge of the divine plan of salvation previously hidden, manifesting itself as] our Righteousness [thus making us upright and putting us in right standing with God], and our Consecration [making us pure and holy; true Sanctification], and our Redemption [providing our ransom from eternal penalty for sin]. So we NOW have this ministry of Reconcilliation...reconciling man back to God...making us all able ministers...this is the "good news"...

PURE Water...The WORD...
Hebrews 10:22
Let us all come forward and draw near with true (honest and sincere) hearts in unqualified assurance and absolute conviction engendered by faith (by that leaning of the entire human personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness), having our hearts sprinkled and purified from a guilty (evil) conscience and our bodies cleansed with pure water...the water of the washing of the WORD...

To The PURE All Things Are PURE...
Titus 1:14-16 (AMP)
15 To the pure [in heart and conscience] all things are pure, but to the defiled and corrupt and unbelieving nothing is pure; their very minds and consciences are defiled and polluted.
16 They profess to know God [to recognize, perceive, and be acquainted with Him], but deny and disown and renounce Him by what they do; they are detestable and loathsome, unbelieving and disobedient and disloyal and rebellious, and [they are] unfit and worthless for good work (deed or enterprise) of any kind.
2 Corinthians 11:2-4 (NLT)
2 For I am jealous for you with the jealousy of God himself. I promised you as a pure bride[*] to one husband—Christ.
3 But I fear that somehow your pure and undivided devotion to Christ will be corrupted, just as Eve was deceived by the cunning ways of the serpent.
4 You happily put up with whatever anyone tells you, even if they preach a different Jesus than the one we preach, or a different kind of Spirit than the one you received, or a different kind of gospel than the one you believed.
