Hope in God
Job 17:1 through 20:29

Throughout history, oppressed groups of people have looked to God for hope. Songs about heaven gave joy to millions who, having little freedom or joy on earth, looked forward to a day when the wrongs would be righted.

Everything that brought Job joy had been taken from him, but he refused to live in despair. He chose to place his hope in God. He could not explain why he lost everything, but he trusted in the One who knows all things. Instead of being driven away from God, his heart drew closer to Him.

“I myself will see him with my own eyes—I, and not another. How my heart yearns within me!” (Job 19:27).

Do not wait until you face persecution to long for heaven. There is a risk of falling in love with the things of the world so that your love for God grows dim. Do not place your hope in your possessions or relationships on earth. The only true hope you have awaits you in heaven.

Father, You are all I need. May my heart long to be with You more than with anyone or anything in this life.

Dark Night of the Soul
Job 13:1 through 16:22

St. John of the Cross supposedly coined the phrase, “dark night of the soul.” Many Christians experience this condition when God does not seem to respond to them. No matter how passionately they pray, God does not seem to answer. Job found himself experiencing this loss.

“Yet if I speak, my pain is not relieved; and if I refrain, it does not go away” (Job 16:6).

A dark night of the soul is not a punishment from God. Quite the contrary, it is a compliment. God knew that Job would pull through the situation and become stronger. God uses periods of spiritual quietness to help Christians determine if they will still serve Him even if they do not hear Him, feel Him, or receive blessings from Him. The dark night of the soul demands that you worship God for who He is rather than for what He does.

Always present God, I know You are with me even when I do not feel You. Help me to trust You regardless of my feelings.

Ultimate Power
Job 9:1 through 12:25

In 2018, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson of Iceland became the World’s Strongest Man. An athlete’s performance in the vehicle pull, the car carry, the anchor carry, and the dead lift determine who will win the title of World’s Strongest Man. Few would want to get into a street brawl with Björnsson.

Job found himself in a contest with one much stronger than Björnsson. Job wrongly thought his adversary was God, but he understood it would be foolish to try to assert his will against God’s. Listening to the description of God given by Job reveals his great reverence of God. Job chose to submit to God’s will even though he desired something different than he was currently experiencing. Job placed himself in the hands of one more powerful than himself.

“He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the constellations of the south” (Job 9:9).

Recognizing the power of God is essential. It is only when a person recognizes God’s power that they will confidently trust Him with their lives.

Almighty God, remind me of Your strength and encourage me to trust You with my whole life.

Seek Godly Wisdom
Job 5:1 through 8:22

Antoine Walker, a former NBA player, shares his story in “Gone in an Instant,” a documentary explaining how he lost the $108 million he made as a professional athlete. Walker’s friends and family offered advice that was in their best interest, not his. He found himself paying bills for more than seventy other people! Many of those “friends” disappeared when he experienced financial ruin.

Likewise, Job’s friends offered very little comfort when he faced his darkest hour. They told him what he should do to escape his pain, but he was wise enough to resist their “wisdom.” Job’s friends did not have God’s perspective of Job’s situation.

“Now you too have proved to be of no help; you see something dreadful and are afraid” (Job 6:21).

It is important that you surround yourself with people who know God and love you. It is easy for people to offer advice out of their own wisdom. It is much more difficult to find friends who will pray with you and listen for God’s solution. Be willing to resist the advice of people who do not have your best interest at heart.

Wise God, help me to find friends who will advise me to follow Your will.

In God We Trust
Job 1:1 through 4:21

A faithful follower of Jesus was eagerly anticipating the arrival of his new son. Sadly, the baby was stillborn. The father grieved. He stopped going to church and eventually walked away from the faith. He refused to worship a God he felt took his son from him. He could not reconcile how a good God could allow this evil to occur.

The Bible tells the story of a man who was faced with a great deal of heartache. Job’s family and wealth were taken from him in a series of unexplainable events. Instead of expressing anger toward God, he chose to worship God.

At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship (Job 1:20).

How do you respond when you face trouble in your life? Do you try to find somebody to blame? Do you become angry? Do you walk away from God? How you respond to difficulty reveals your true character and what you really believe about God. When you have trouble in life, turn toward God instead of away from Him.

Father, help me to turn to You even when I don’t understand what is happening.

Purim
Esther 8:1 through 10:3

Societies recognize special events by establishing holidays to keep the memory alive in people’s minds. In the United States, just the mention of Independence Day or D-Day causes people to remember what happened on those important dates.

The mention of Purim reminds the Jewish people of how God protected them. Purim reminded the Jewish people that God recast the pur (lot) that Haman had cast against them. During the month of Adar (March), the holiday reminds the Jewish people that no matter how bad their lot may look, God has their best interest at heart.

The month when their sorrow was turned into joy and their mourning into a day of celebration (Esther 9:22).

You were dead in yours sins. Then, one day, God changed your lot in life. You accepted Jesus as your Savior and you began to walk on a different path. Instead of death, you are now experiencing life. Your mourning has been turned into joy. This should be a source of celebration. Consider establishing a holiday commemorating the day when God saved you.

Redeeming God, thank You for saving me!

Tables Turned
Esther 4:1 through 7:10

The Jewish people have come under attack many times in history. The most infamous attack took place in N**i Germany during World War II. Hi**er designed a plan to eliminate every person of Jewish heritage. Heroic efforts by the Allied Forces foiled Hi**er’s plan. The tables were turned, and Hi**er’s regime was annihilated.

Like Hi**er, Haman organized his forces to destroy\ God’s people. He felt that they were a threat to him and to his people. He convinced the king to sign an order to kill all the Jews in one day. He might have succeeded had God not stepped in and turned the tables on Haman’s plans. Instead of the elimination of Mordecai and his people, Haman was eliminated.

So they impaled Haman on the pole he had set up for Mordecai. Then the king’s fury subsided (Esther 7:10).

Today it is popular to ridicule Christians who assert the truths of Scripture. Many Christians in the world suffer persecution for their faith. Some people would love to see Christians eliminated. But that will never happen. God will protect His Church.

Protective Father, help me trust Your ability to preserve my life.

Judged by God
Nehemiah 12:1 through 13:31

Some people do not attend church because they think it is filled with hypocrites. While not all churchgoers are spiritually flawless, to make a decision about Church attendance based on the character of others is foolish.

Nehemiah returned to Jerusalem to find that the Jewish people were not following through on their commitment to obey God’s commands. Nehemiah did all that he could to correct the problems. He did not give in to the temptation to compromise. Nehemiah understood that God would judge him based on his actions alone.

Remember me for this, my God, and do not blot out what I have so faithfully done for the house of my God and its services (Nehemiah 13:14).

It is tempting to make excuses for one’s spiritual failures based on the failures of others. A Christian might attempt to justify a life of compromise because he sees others in the Church compromising Christian values. Christians must understand that one day we will stand before God and He will evaluate our actions. Holy God, remind me that You alone are my judge.

Priorities Revealed
Nehemiah 10:1 through 11:36

A pastor can easily offend some Christians by presenting a need to the congregation or preaching a sermon on the importance of giving. Many Christians are willing to give a few dollars, but the idea of giving 10 percent of their income to a local church seems unreasonable. Today the average Christian gives just over 3 percent to all charities combined.

When the people of Israel sought to reestablish their relationship with God, they demonstrated their desire through their willingness to give a tithe of their possessions to God. Tithing became a priority for them because they desired to please God and recognized His place in their lives. The people declared:

“We will not neglect the house of our God” (Nehemiah 10:39).

God’s requirement that His people tithe was a means to see the true heart of the person. God does not need money, so giving does not benefit Him. Giving is for the believer. It demonstrates whether a person is generous. It also reveals their priorities. Christians who prioritize God will never neglect His house.

God, all I have belongs to You. Help my life reflect this truth.
