“The More I See You” — written by Harry Warren (1945), sung by legends like Nat King Cole, Nancy Sinatra, Andy Williams, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, and Michael Bublé.
“The more I see You, the more I want You…”
Just like our relationship with God — the more we read His Word, the more we know Him, love Him, and desire to walk with Him.
📖 Teaching Segment — Psalm 119:97–104 (Mem)“Oh, how I love Your law!”
A personal confession, a present-tense testimony.
Throughout each day, the psalmist intentionally applies God’s Word to his life.
Key truths from the passage:
God’s Word keeps you:
“How sweet are Your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!”
“Through Your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.” (v.104)
Global Prayer for Israel – believers around the world uniting in intercession.
