Passion for Praise: 'In the Nick of Time'

Saturday, October 20, 1962

Some of you were sick because you'd lived a bad life, your bodies feeling the effects of your sin... so miserable you thought you'd be better off dead. Then you called out to GOD in your desperate condition; he got you out in the nick of time. He spoke the word that healed you, that pulled you back from the brink of death. So thank GOD for his marvelous love, for his miracle mercy to the children he loves.
— Psalm 107:17-21 MSG

Virtual Worship by Demetrius Collins & Phil Ware
