Intentionally Act
- Read Genesis chapter 43 again.

- Did the Lord bring any conviction regarding favoritism or self-preservation while studying this passage? Confess and forsake that sin.
- Ask the Lord to illuminate this passage this coming Lord’s day and to continue our sanctification.
- Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; practice the songs, study the lyrics and sing together.
