Job is a good role model for faith. All other problems seem so mild compared to what he went through and he never fully understood why it all happened.
I thank GOD that what ever job went through he still thank GOD and rememberd God. its like us we go through trials and it moves us but no matter what happend to him he never gave up on GOD we should learn from this and as i was reading this i was thinking about satin told GOD that he will curse YOU to thy faces its like when the devil temps us he wants to see if we will curse GOD to his face think about it before you fall.or when u go through a trial.
I believe that the "sons of God" in Genesis 6 were fallen angels. One reason why is because angels are called "sons of God" in Job 1:6, 2:1 38:7, plus it says in 2 Peter 2:4, "For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment"
What was their sin? It couldn't have been the sin of rebellion, because otherwise, all the fallen angels would be in hell, and we know that they are not. Only some of the fallen angels married women of the earth and sired children who ended up being giants, and that was the sin that 2 Peter 2:4 is talking about, and Jude 6 speaks more about that sin, it speaks of angels that kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation. A group of fallen angels did not keep their first estate, but left it to come down to earth and either took on human form or possessed the bodys of earth men and mated with earth women, and the result was a race of giants, and that was the sin that 2 Peter 2:4 and Jude 6 is talking about. If "sons of God" in Genesis 6 were the line of seth or just men in general, why does it use the word "men" then "sons of God" if men and sons of God both refer to men? The word "men" is in verse 1, and "sons of God" and "men" are in verse 2. "sons of God" and "men" are in verse 4. "sons of God" and "men" must be two different types of beings, otherwise, why not just use the word "men" instead of "sons of God" as well?
If the sons of God were the godly line of Seth who were unequally yoked together with the ungodly daughters of Cain, I doubt that that would cause their offspring to be giants. They were giant in size because in Numbers 13:33 it says, "And there we saw the giants {nephelim in Hebrew} and it goes on to say, "and we were in our own sight grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. So the nephelim in Gen. 6 must have been giant is size just like the nephelim in Numbers 13, and something happened to make them giant sized, and it could not have been because of godly men marrying ungodly women. Something else went on to make them giants, and that was the unnatural union between angels and earth women who married and had sex.
I feel as job, when I’ve had any lost I’ve always looked to my father in heaven, the Lord Jesus Christ. I love him and I know he loves me. Just as he gives he will take back or allow it to be taken to show you that no matter what happen he is with you. Never underestimate the power of the Lord. You are tested at your weeks hours of hopelessness. This is why you should keep your hold on the Lord, I just could never have it any other way.
He went through so many trials and tribulations and he still had faith in God! I think Job is a good example of what Christians should be like. No matter what happens in your life God can bring you throught it. Glory be to God!
Job was a man who did what was require of God. He walk away from his flesh or the desires of others to do the will of God. This is the foundation of how men and women can stand in the tough times. Surely remember tough times has to come; it is just the way its. Job gave his heart to God and nothing else mattered.
This is my thoughts of Job 1:1
V.21. Only some logical thoughts. Job said ...and the Lord has taken away. Job, likely did not have Vs. 8-12 as we do now, telling us that it was Satan who took all his children and posessions in an attempt to disprove Job's loyalty. During much loss and suffering, Job maintained his integrity for God. Might this loving, caring God also permit evil powers to torment us for the same reason? I don't think so since our security is in Christ and He has already won the battle for us. Lets live for Jesus. Blessed be His name.
God is not allowing Satan to do anything to Job. God doesn't give him permission. It never says that. As a matter of truth, in chapter 3, Job tells you exactly what caused his problems...FEAR, Job 3:25 the thing Job greatly feared came upon him. Fear is the cause, not God. God's will is His Word. He doesn't work under "permissive will" and his will isn't sickness and death. If it was, Jesus would not have needed to die for our sins, nor take stripes for our healing!
Helps show us to have patients with GOD, He's always in control. Our rewards arn't in this world but the world to come. Truating Jesus our LORD.
Thank GOD for this study of JOB TO HELP ME THROUGHT THIS LIFE IN THIS WORLD.
Job faith was high in chapter #2. Now in chapter #3 job deplores his birth. His mind became a battle field due to Satan attack. The Word of God is teaching us that steadfast faith is a trail in lie.it could be High, medium and go to it's lowest peak like job. However, we must remember 1 peter verse 5:8 and also Isaiah 54 : vereses 17-18.
chapter #1 from vs 6 satan attacks job's character
satan is very bold. God limit satan power,he is infite and not all -powerful.It was satan who planned and implemented job's suffering. God may have allow satan to test job for a time.verse 12 read 1 Cor 10:13 God's children must go through trials we just have to be like Job stay strong in faith and humility.
In the book of job chapter on should remind the people that fear the Lord and worship Him in spirit and truth, should maintain humility and integrity during trials.
not too sure however I love the book of job, we all have a jobe like situation and have to ask ourselves is it God that is testing us to see if we are truly his children that obay his words, and then that SATAN who at all times trouble our minds and then uses our children to get to us. Job was a man of strong faith but his friends who came to fast and pray with him were not at all good for him as they accused him afterwards of cursing god but pay very good attention to Job 1: 20-22
The lord did not take anything from Job, satan did because god put it back in satans hands. Job said that not knowing at that time. Like when you blame God it be satan Reread what happen. Selah
Is the book of Job One of the oldest in the Bible?
It Points so much to the cross even after the fall of Adam so much Paralleling the new testament Even to Jesus,s blood washing our sins away so we can come boldly to the throne of grace Hallelujah
job was indeed a perfect and upright man as the bible spoke of him.i embrace this scripture every time i study the book of job.because not only did he immediately realise what was against him.but he knew who was against him.satan it was.And job made a fool of satan by not choosing to curse god.
This is great example that helps me realize that as an artist I'm not even worthy to be an apprentice working under the master . It is only by the grace of God that I have been blessed with anything good .
I have felt like Job in some ways...I have too lost my children and my mariages. I see it as I had to be completely broken to really undersand where I am at this precise momment. Thank you Jesus!
“I will treasure whatever level of success God has allowed me to obtain. But stay mindful that they do not belong to me. The forces of evil are all around me in this world and Satan wants to destroy all that love the Lord. When all is lost, God is my ever present help. I will find my way back through my faith in God.”
