Things People Said - Part 6
Psalms 47:2 “For Adonai ‘Elyon is awesome, a great king over all the earth.”
Job said:
Job 42:1-6 “Job answered Adonai and said: 2 “I know You can do all things; no purpose of Yours can be thwarted. 3 You ask, ‘Who is this, who darkens counsel without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke without understanding, things too wonderful for me which I did not know. 4 You said, ‘Hear now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will inform Me.’ 5 I had heard of You by the hearing of the ear; but now my eye has seen You. 6 Therefore I despise myself, and repent on dust and ashes.” CJB
Job suffered much, he lost everything, from all his children to finances and respect. He spoke many things and said things to Elohim that maybe he should have not said. At the end, he recognized that he did not understand many things.
The same happens to many of us sometimes, we assume things, perceive things that are not true or are incorrect. Many times, we have wrong thoughts of why things are happening to us and we want to blame Elohim. When we are going through hardships; we must stand and believe that Elohim is not out to get us but He is there molding us and taking us to a higher place in our fellowship with Him. He is always correct and He is there to bring us to that sanctified life in unity with Him. Therefore, we must continue to live our lives in love, repentance, and righteousness. Elohim never left Job; He was there at all times. Continue to have hope.
Isaiah 41:10 “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you; don’t be distressed, for I am your God. I give you strength, I give you help, I support you with my victorious right hand.” CJB
