In the book of Job when we first meet Job we find He was a man who lived in the land of Uz; and that he was blameless, upright, fearing God and turning away from evil.

 

Job had seven sons and three daughters.

 

His possessions also were 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, 500 female donkeys, and very many servants; and that Job was the greatest of all the men of the east. We also found that His sons His sons and daughters partied together, a lot.

And we found that after the kids partied Job would get up early and perform burnt offerings for each of them, just in case they had sinned and cursed God.

And that He did this continuously.

 

And if you read the book of Job you will find three of His friend came by and for seven day sat with Him and the began to speak, but they would have been better off to have keep their mouths shut.

 

And after a very long conversation the Lord speaks up and lets them know how foolish they are.

 

Through the whole ordeal Job went through He never cursed God and for that God blessed Him with twice what He had before.

 

Between meeting Job and God giving Him beck twice what He had lost we are introduced to three of Jobs friends, they speak what they think is wisdom (the wisdom of man) seems they do not know God they just know of Him but their concepts are worldly based and useless.

 

One thing i picked up going through Job is that God is in control, and no matter what may come in to our lives whether we think it is good or bad if we are living upright before Him and continuously praising Him Father God He will bless us.

 

When bad things happen we need to keep our eyes on Father God and the Lord Jesus at all times by doing so we will have no need to fear anything not even death.

 

If we put Christ first in our lives, repent daily of our sins, keep His commandments and praise Him constantly, The Lord God will bless our lives.

 

When bad times come God is still in control.

So except your day as a gift from the Father, praise God, run from sin, and ask to be forgiven for any sins in your life.

 

be one who is like Job; blameless, upright, God fearing and turning away from evil.
