 Shall we pray? Our dear Heavenly Father, we thank you for thy word. We thank you that we can study it and learn from it. I pray, Lord, that you'd be with us as we listen to the message today, be with every listener. I pray for the lost. I pray that today they would come to know you. And Lord, we just ask for your blessing in Jesus' name. Amen. A warm welcome to our program.
