Ministry of Darkness
STRANGE MINISTERS

Isaiah 50
Now if you will open your Bibles to the prophet Isaiah, chapter 50. I am going to read the last two verses, 10 and 11:
Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.

The first one said for the past six months there has been a darkness upon my soul that I have never before experienced where I have absolutely no feelings as far as spiritual things were concerned. I would pray and didn't feel that God was hearing, much less answering. Another man said he wrote a book on the Christian li ...
