Through the Bible: JobSample

God Will Never Desert Us

Behold, God will not reject a blameless man,

nor take the hand of evildoers.

He will yet fill your mouth with laughter,

and your lips with shouting.

Those who hate you will be clothed with shame,

and the tent of the wicked will be no more.

Job 8: 20 - 22, (ESV)

Like Eliphaz, Bildad mistakenly assumes that Job is not pure and that one’s prosperity is linked to his righteous behavior. But the book of Job teaches us one important message that this is not always the case. However, one thing is certain. No matter what difficult situation there is in life, God will not reject anyone who is in Christ Jesus. Our Almighty God will never desert us even when we are weak and have a moment of doubt because we are His sons and daughters.

Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your everlasting love. May You and Your Spirit be always with us no matter what difficult situation we are in. May we lift all our burdens to You, and You will take away our worries and fear. We pray these in Your Mighty Name, Amen!
