How firm of a foundation he says of the Lord, He is laid for your faith in His excellent Word.

Passion, longing, faith.

These are a few of the things that we'll see in King David today,

as our study of the Psalms continues on through the Bible.

I'm Steve Schwetz and while you hop aboard the Bible bus and find your place in Psalm chapter 42,

here's a quick reminder that our teacher Dr. J. Vernon McGee liked us to share on occasion.

From time to time, it was my custom to state the policy of the through the Bible radio program.

And it's time again for it to be stated. I would like to do that.

It has never been our plan of purpose from the very beginning to use high pressure methods.

We do not send out junk mail. Everyone that's on our mailing list got there because they ask to be put there

or else someone asks for them. We today believe that if you are not able to support the program

and you want our notes and outlines that God will raise up somebody down the street over in the

next town to send in enough for you and for them also. We believe that the real test is the

support that comes from any area and we will not continue on a program if we do not get a reasonable

amount of support. And we always give every station a fair opportunity to see if it's going to

pay for itself. And that by the way is all that we ask. We do from time to time appeal to you

to support our foreign broadcasts. After all, we cannot ask them that is the Chinese or the people

of India are the people of South America or the people in Russia support our program. We believe

that there are not folk in this country that are interested in getting out the word over our

curtains under bamboo curtains and through the curtains of indifference and send the day

to get the word of God out to the world. So we just let you know this and trust you will understand

that we do need your support though we will not violate our rule by using high-pressure methods.
