Chapter Twelve/He Took Comfort in His God - Jehovah Sustained His Prophet-Conclusion

 

Jehovah sustains his servants today as well, not with miraculous physical meals, but in a far more vital way.  He provides for his servants spiritually. (Matthew 4:4) Learning about God from his Word and from publications that are carefully based on the Bible sustains us spiritually.
