TOPIC : FAITH IN HARD TIMES
TEXT JOB 1:16-9,11
[1]There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
[6]Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
[7]And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
[8]And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
[9]Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
[11]But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
Beloved, the Psalmist declared in Psalms 34:2 that his soul shall make his boast in the LORD, but can God boast about you?
God was boasting about Job and his life of integrity.
Satan told God that Job's worship was commercially induced but God knew Job's heart and his pure spirit.
God can also boast of Job's rugged faith.
How healthy is your faith?
Job recovered all because of the strength of his faith.
I pray for you that your faith will remain active in Jesus mighty name.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
