What do you learn or understand from Book of Job . Can you write 3 points ?

My 3 points :

1) Suffering doesn't mean someone has done Sin and God is punishing him/her with all the pain . God's way to see you how far you can hold to him . Even we fail he still can bring us back to him
2) God asked Job to prayed for his 3 friends to remove their sins . All the chapters ,we saw how there 3 friends taunts Job that he has done Sin and God is punishing him . We see in daily life, people quote bible verses to insult people who are suffering . God watches our every move and what we say to others and how are we dealing when someone in trouble. Are we praying for the suffering or we are judging them by saying they have sinned .
3) Satan can completely destroy what one has with a blink If God's hand leaves us . If we pray to him, he will get us back from the hand of Satan .

1. Job was a good man he loved God. God loved him
2. Satan destroyed Job took everything he has. But he continued to serve God.
3. Job was blessed double by God because he was not moved by tragedy that fall on him to curse God.

Points I learned from the book Job

—Point One: I learned the importance of knowing God for myself and having an intimate relationship with God. I learned I can have firsthand knowledge about God from my own eyes and ears. I don’t have to live on hearsay, crumbs, or rumors of God. I can know God for myself. —Scripture Job 42:5

—Point Two: As a Christian, Satan does not have free course in your life. Before anything from Satan reaches you, it has to go through God (Job 1:10-13). If God allowed it, there is a purpose for it. One of the purposes is to mature us in Christ and help shape us into the image of Christ Jesus. — Scripture Job 1:12

—Point Three: I learned obedience to God brings blessings and God's hedge of protection. —Scripture Job 1:12

—Point Four: I learned it is okay to question God. —Scripture Job 42:3-4

 

[Urbanowski]

Job never doubt Gods mercy and compassion.
He trusted His word.
At the end God was faithful and true to him and to his family.

Let us all of us be like Job. Going through trials and tribulations, loosing everything he had and fall ill and no one was helping him. He loved the Lord and Jesus was with Him all the time.

Brother Naveen I stand in agreement with you.

(a few verses)
Romans 8:18
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

Yes we do experience some form of tribulation and hardship here on earth. Jesus stated to expect persecution...

Matthew 24:9
“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.

The good news...
Romans 8:33-34
...It is God who justifies.
Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.

- We may face persecution from the world but we are not comdemned by the Father. Jesus is interceding for us. Who can be against us?

Brother Naveen stated:
We see in daily life, people quote bible verses to insult people who are suffering .

It is sad but true.

James 5:9
Don’t grumble against one another, brothers and sisters, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door.

Ephesians 4:3
Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

Remember brethren:
1 Peter 5:10
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

SUFFERING DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU HAVE SINNED. WE ALL SUFFER BUT GOD WILL SEE YOU THROUGH IT!

Post Script
Brother Naveen stated:
"We see in daily life, people quote bible verses to insult people who are suffering ."

Subsequently I felt the need to give a New Testament response to address his concerns. Our other members covered their points so well!

Generally I do try to stick with the topic at hand.
Sorry Brother!

 

[TRUTH PREVAILS]

2 Timothy 3 : 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching the truth, rebuking error, correcting faults and giving instruction for right living, 17 so that the person who serves God may be fully qualified and equipped to do every kind of good deed
HERE IS THE BIBLICAL TRUTH I HAVE LEARNED
POINT no 1:The Almighty God is the Lord of all creations.He alone is God.He is the Master of life.Job 38:2-5,and 18Job 39 to 41and Job 28:23-27
POINT no 2 :The God of righteousness , glorious Father Is the God who is everywhere. No one can escape His Holy presence.His power is so great. Job 37:23,Job 38:22-24and Job 12:16-21
POINT no 3 :He is faithful to accomplish His plan victoriously without fail. No one can oppose His will .Job 1:12 and Job 42:12-16

Kindly be reminded!! God said to human beings ,"To be wise ,you must have reverence for the Lord.To understand, you must turn from evil . Job 28:28

Three points that I can make reference to concerning the Book of Job:
God never promised that we would go through life without testing.Even Jesus was tested on earth Although Job grieved heavily from the crunbling of his financial security the loss of his family member through natural disasters and ultimately his rapidly declining health he stillworshipped God .It is only when we acknowledge the power oc God that we can put lice into perspectiveGod promised that He would always be with us.Matt.28v20.
Onemore important lesson that we learn is that we should always try to comgort one another in times of bereavement or adversity because we will all need somebody to lean on during this walk of life However we should hoose our words carefully Instead of blaning ,we should choose the words that bring comfort..
Thirdly,the story of Job teaches us thatsometumes when we go through extremely difficult periods in our lives we are eing tested and tried.Da id said "Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for you are with me.".There is no testimony without a test.God will only use the soldier He can trust.There is a reward for being faithful.If not in this life well it will be in Heaven..

Job is an inspiration to many. He knew all along Jesus was going to help him and heal him. Trusting Gods word and faithfulness is the key.
