*Stay standing here, students, as we recite our Kingdom expansion prayer scriptures from Psalm 119:15-16, Joshua 1:8, and Ezra 7:10. Let us all recite these scriptures together. I will read the first. Church, you read the second. Altogether, we will read the last.

Scripture:
 
I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways. I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word. (PSALM 119:15-16)
 
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. (JOSHUA 1:8)
 
For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the Lord, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. (EZRA 7:10)

I invite the parents to come forward and lay holy hands of prayer on your children, as well as all ordained and reserve officers of Hosanna. Let us pray.
