Bible verses about "orderliness" | MKJV

³ it seemed good to me also, following all things accurately from the very first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus,

¹⁶ For all things were created in Him, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers, all things were created through Him and for Him. ¹⁷ And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist.

⁷ Remember those leading you, who have spoken to you the Word of God, whose faith follow, considering the end of their conduct:

¹ To every thing there is a season, and a time for every purpose under the heavens: ² a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pull up what is planted; ³ a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; ⁴ a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; ⁵ a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; ⁶ a time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away; ⁷ a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; ⁸ a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. ⁹ What profit does he have who works in that in which he labors? ¹⁰ I have seen the task which God has given to the sons of men to be humbled by it. ¹¹ He has made everything beautiful in His time; also He has set eternity in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God makes from the beginning to the end. ¹² I know that there is no good in them, but to rejoice and to do good in his life. ¹³ And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labor, it is the gift of God. ¹⁴ I know that whatever God does, it shall be forever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; and God does it so that they fear before Him. ¹⁵ That which has been is now; and that which is to be has already been; and God requires that which is past. ¹⁶ And again I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that wickedness was there. ¹⁷ I said in my heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked; for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work. ¹⁸ I said in my heart concerning the matter of sons of men, that God might reveal them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. ¹⁹ For that which happens to the sons of men also happens to beasts, even one thing happens to them. As this one dies, so that one dies; yea, they all have one breath; so that a man has no advantage over a beast; for all is vanity. ²⁰ All go to one place; all are of the dust, and all return to dust again. ²¹ Who knows the spirit of man that goes upward, and the spirit of the beast that goes downward? ²² Therefore I have seen that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion; for who can bring him to see what shall be after him?

³⁰ I went by the field of the lazy man, and by the vineyard of the man without understanding; ³¹ and, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face of it, and its stone wall was broken down. ³² Then I saw; I set my heart on it; I looked and I received instruction.

² And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what is that good and pleasing and perfect will of God.

³ Let the aged women likewise be in reverent behavior, not slanderers, not enslaved by much wine, teachers of good; ⁴ that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, ⁵ to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, subject to their own husbands, that the Word of God may not be blasphemed.

¹ In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. ² And the earth was without form and empty. And darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved on the face of the waters. ³ And God said, Let there be light. And there was light. ⁴ And God saw the light that it was good. And God divided between the light and the darkness. ⁵ And God called the light, Day. And He called the darkness, Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. ⁶ And God said, Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. ⁷ And God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so. ⁸ And God called the expanse, Heavens. And the evening and the morning were the second day. ⁹ And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear; and it was so. ¹⁰ And God called the dry land, Earth. And He called the gathering together of the waters, Seas. And God saw that it was good. ¹¹ And God said, Let the earth bring forth tender sprouts (the herb seeding seed and the fruit tree producing fruit after its kind, whose seed is in itself) upon the earth; and it was so. ¹² And the earth brought forth tender sprouts, the herb yielding seed after its kind, and the tree producing fruit after its kind, whose seed was in itself. And God saw that it was good. ¹³ And the evening and the morning were the third day. ¹⁴ And God said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to divide between the day and the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years. ¹⁵ And let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth. And it was so. ¹⁶ And God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day and the smaller light to rule the night, and the stars also. ¹⁷ And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth, ¹⁸ and to rule over the day and over the night; and to divide between the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good. ¹⁹ And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. ²⁰ And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarmers having a living soul; and let birds fly over the earth on the face of the expanse of the heavens. ²¹ And God created great sea-animals, and every living soul that creeps with which the waters swarmed after their kind; and every winged fowl after its kind. And God saw that it was good. ²² And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters of the seas and let the fowl multiply in the earth. ²³ And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. ²⁴ And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creepers, and its beasts of the earth after its kind; and it was so. ²⁵ And God made the beasts of the earth after its kind, and cattle after their kind, and all creepers upon the earth after their kind. And God saw that it was good. ²⁶ And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over all the creepers creeping on the earth. ²⁷ And God created man in His image; in the image of God He created him. He created them male and female. ²⁸ And God blessed them. And God said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply and fill the earth, and subdue it. And have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the heavens, and all animals that move upon the earth. ²⁹ And God said, Behold! I have given you every herb seeding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which is the fruit of a tree seeding seed; to you it shall be for food. ³⁰ And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to every creeper on the earth which has in it a living soul every green plant is for food; and it was so. ³¹ And God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

⁴⁰ Let all things be done decently and in order.
