2. Soul: Is the eternal part of you that will continue on after your bodily death. It is the breath of life that God breathed into each and every one of us, beginning with Adam. Your soul is governed by your spirit.

3. Retention: Is the act of keeping or storing something. This word is often used as the ability to keep workers or customers from leaving a company, or a student from leaving a school. In our scenario it is the act of building our relationship with God, the act of strengthening our connection.

6. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil." 1 Peter 3:12 MKJV

10. Romans 10:8-10

11. But what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart (that is the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

12. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:8-10 (NKJV)

14. Psalm 121:1-3
