5. He is your praise and he is your God, who has done these great and awesome things for you which your eyes have seen.

6. I love the LORD, because he hears My voice and my supplications

8. If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, and the sign or the wonder comes true, concerning which he spoke to you, saying, “Let us go after other gods (whom you have not known) and let us serve them,” you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God is testing you to find out if you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. You shall follow the Lord your God and fear him; and you shall keep his commandments, listen to his voice, serve him, and cling to him.
