And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.

And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.

• Power

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

• Church

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

• War

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
