Your Answer Is - God! 12 November Jobs troubles lasted almost a year. In that year he lost his children, his money, and his health. Thats when he prayed, Oh, that I knew where I might find Him. Notice, Job didnt pray, Oh, that I knew how to get back my children, my money, and my health. He focused on none of those things. He realised that when you are in right standing with God, all the rest will fall into place. Heres a truth you learn when you lose what you love: when youve nothing left but God, you discover that God is enough! Much of the book of Job is about him arguing with God and complaining about his lot in life. Are you doing that? If you are, dont worry. God can handle it. As long as your eyes are on Him, He can correct you, teach you, help you, and cause you to grow stronger in faith. Job wasnt privy to what had gone on behind the scenes. He didnt know that a discussion had taken place between God and Satan in which Satan said that if God stripped Job of all he had, he would curse Him (Job 1:11). But God knew differently, so He allowed Satan to attack Job for a season. When it was over, God hadnt changed His mind about Job and Job hadnt changed his mind about God. The only one who had changed his mind was Satan! If youre wondering how the story ends: The Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning (Job 42:12 NKJV). So if youre in trouble today, your answer is - God. Keep trusting Him and He will bring you through victorious! Soulfood : Rom 3:21-6:23, Jn 10:1-10, Ps 133, Prov 29:15-18
