Read messageThere is nothing like the satisfaction and joy of seeing a wounded soul being rehabbed by the love, and wisdom, and power of God. Isaiah spoke of the reward and benefit for those who make it their business to care for th…

Read message“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee" (Isa. 26:3). What a glorious promise this is, to be kept in "perfect peace.” And the condition of the promise is not anythi…
