Thanks, guys. Sounding good. Man, I'm hearing parts. I'm hearing things are in tune. Everybody's in the same key.

Ha ha. Nice, nice. Nice. Now, you're laughing, but it's doing it's not as easy as talking about it.

If you would go with me to Matthew the sixth chapter, a few weeks ago we began a new series for us called Teach Us to Pray.

Teach us to pray.

I'm excited about this.

I believe it is changing us.

And that if we'll follow through, go all the way with this, we will see more

and greater manifestations of the Holy Spirit in our midst and in our personal lives day in, day out.

You think it can be?

I know it can.

And I know it's God's will.

Thank you, Lord.

Something I was prompted to do.

Stand back up, please.

And we didn't do.

If you've seen the news, you know Israel is in the midst of a war on multiple fronts.

And I was prompted that we should know the Bible tells us to pray for them.

And I was prompted that we should pray in particular for their leaders and their decisions that they're making.

Because they are torn between making the decisions that they're making because they are torn between making the decisions that they know they have to do to protect their people and even survive and without alienating support that they need from other countries,

including us. So they need the other countries, including us.

So they need the wisdom of God and the direction of God.

So let's lift them up.
