Finding Security in a Troubled World
Description
. And we all know the story. He had great wealth, he had a large family, and all of a sudden, everything began to go wrong in his life, and he doesn’t know why. We know why, because in chapters 1 and 2 of Job, Satan comes to God and Satan says to God, “Hey, does Job fear God for nothing? In other words, the reason Job fears You, the reason he’s righteous, the reason he’s such a good man, the reason he worships You the way he does is because You have blessed him so greatly. You’ve made a hedge about him, his house and all that he has on every side. You’ve blessed the work of his hands. You’ve given him possessions, they’ve increased in the land.” And then Satan says to God, “But put forth Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will curse You to Your face. Job only worships You, serves You, because You’ve blessed him. Take away the blessing, he’ll curse You.” So this is a test: “Will a faithful, righteous man be faithful and righteous when he has everything taken away?” And the story unfolds from there.
