26. How can a man pray to the Omniscient God of the universe? We need the Spirit of God to pray for us, on our behalf. We need Him even more in this age of distraction. In prayer, heart without words is better than words without heart.
27. God’s favor is poured out to those who live in His righteousness, hate sin and shun evil.
28. The Lord of the universe is the only One worthy of our worship. His kingdom will be established and He will reign over all the earth.
