Trust

You have lost everything. Your children have all died; your business has been destroyed; disease racks your body and all your friends blame you for these events and criticize you daily.  You may think I’m writing about someone in todays world. No, I writing about Job, a man in the Old Testament who experienced all of those situations.  What did he do?  How did he survive? Well, his wife was no help. She wanted him to curse God and die. Instead, Job trusted God through it all.  Job 42:10,12a records, “And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also, the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. . . So, the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning:” Did you see that? Job prayed for his friends, who had persecuted, ridiculed and accused him of wrong doing; then God blessed him. Is there someone you need to pray for and forgive?  Are you trusting God? Job knew His redeemer was alive and that He was coming to earth.

Inspired by the Holy Spirit, Job records, “For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:” Job 19:25 (KJV)

Today, during these days, pray for your friends and those who persecute you, forgive them and be blessed. Jesus is coming.

Remember God Loves you and I Do Too.
