For you will enjoy the fullness of my salvation!” (TPT) In continuation with our study on Psalm 91, let us turn our attention to verse 16.

He is transcendent (he is beyond and above us and our understanding of this world) But as strange as it may seem, God’s Win-Loss record seems not clean. Because there’s a ...read more
