The book of Job teaches us that we can trust GOD, his purpose, wisdom, and goodness even while we may be going through great suffering or trials.

Our understanding of our circumstances is limited at times and we should not lean on our understanding but trust that GOD is working out all things for our ultimate good if we are among those who love him and have been called according to his purpose.

Good times and difficult times have the potential to work for our and others benefit and conform us all to a more perfect image of Christ.

Job invites the reader to further ponder some of life's most difficult questions.

Todays reading shows us that just because we don't yet understand the "WHY" something is happening doesn't mean there is not a purpose for it, and even if what we are enduring is intended for evil against us, GOD can still turn the results of it into something that is ultimately good for us or those we may be trying to help.

Scripture References

Job Chapters 38-42

Mark 11:24 "Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you."

Numbers 6:22-26 "Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘Thus you shall bless the sons of Israel. You shall say to them: The Lord bless you, and keep you; The Lord make His face shine on you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance on you,
And give you peace."

My Reflection This Episode:

Our true worth is found in our relationship with GOD.

Job is showing our value in the LORDS eyes, is based on our faithfulness to Him, NOT on earthly recognition and NOT our status or position among mankind, and definitely not on how many words we use to pass judgement on ourselves or others.

Episode Take Away

The best way to handle life's circumstances regardless of my current situation is to focus on who the LORD is, what he has done, and that nothing is impossible for him to do for me or someone I may be trying to help at that very moment in time or into my/their future if I/they believe and continue to focus and rely on him in faith.

Reflection Questions

Have you, like Job or his friends, ever realized that you spoke without truly having the understanding you thought you had and it humbled you or made you ashamed? Did you repent and ask the LORDS forgiveness?

Why do you think the LORD forgave Job and restored to him all he had lost and more?

Why do you think the LORD spoke to Job, Eliphaz, Zophar, and Bildad but he does not address Elihu nor is Elihu mentioned any more in the book of Job?

Do you live with a victim mentality or do you cast your cares on the LORD and believe for him to work all things out for your good in his timing?

After listening to this series did you realize you may have pre-judged others at times or gave biblical advice before truly understanding what the LORD wanted you to do, say, or not say?

Scripture References

Job Chapters 32-37

Proverbs 10:19-21 - "When there are many words, transgression is unavoidable, But he who restrains his lips is wise. The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver, The heart of the wicked is worth little. The lips of the righteous feed many, But fools die for lack of understanding."

Ecclesiastes 5:2 - "Do not be hasty in word or impulsive in thought to bring up a matter in the presence of God. For God is in heaven and you are on the earth; therefore let your words be few."

2 Timothy 2:16-17 - "But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness, and their talk will spread like gangrene."

Matthew 5:37 - "But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is of evil."

My Reflection This Episode:

Our true worth is found in our relationship with GOD.

Job is showing our value in GODs eyes is based on our faithfulness to Him, NOT on earthly recognition and NOT our status or position among mankind.

Episode Take Away

Elihu is defending Gods character and trying to restore a more right way of thinking to both Job and his friends.

Whether younger or older, age doesn't always equal wisdom.

Reflection Questions

Have you ever been overly zealous about a topic to the point of not using any restraint, but instead hastily uttering harsh words of judgement?

Did you later realize your many words had done more harm than good and wished you had exercised restraint over your words?

Episode Take Away

Whether we are being elevated or going through a period of humility, the approval and love of GOD should always be our focus and top priority!

Reflection Question

Do I seek the wisdom and will of GOD in order to perceive the true nature of different life situations (for myself or others) before I make decisions or take any actions?
