  1. LESSON 19 GOD’S WILL FOR HIS PEOPLE (PART II)

  2. Opening Prayer Before lesson • Dear God, when I think of the times I've misused your name, I blush with shame. All around me I hear your names used at the silliest times...when people are angry or excited or amused. But you don't think it's so silly. It's your name. Dear Jesus, forgive me for the times I've fallen into that sin. Help me to know you better so that I use your name in a way that shows my love for you, not my disinterest and disobedience. Teach me more about you through your Word and get into my heart so that I really want to live for you -- not just on Sunday, but every day of my life. Help us with this study today. We pray believing that you will help us. Amen.
