Oh let the Son of God and found you with his spirit and his love,

let him fill your heart and will satisfy your soul.

Oh, let him have the things that hold you

and his spirit like a dove will descend upon your life and make you

home.

Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible Teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith,

founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire

Bible. And on today's edition of the word for today,

Passerchach continues with a strong faith of Job. As we pick up in Job chapter 23 verse 8 and now with today's

but he knows the way that I take, and when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. Deep down underneath there is a strong faith that is keeping this man.
