Job36
5 God is almighty and yet does not depise anyone! And he is perfect in his understanding.
7 He does not ignore the good men but honors them by placing them upon eternal, kingly thrones.
8 If trouble comes upon them and they are enslaved and afflicted, 9 then he takes the trouble to point out to them the reason, what they have done that is wrong, or how they have behaved proudly.
10 He helps them hear his instruction to turn away from their sin.
11 If they listen and obey him, then they will be blessed with prosperity throughout their lives.
12 If they won’t listen to him, they shall perish in battle and die because of their lack of good sense.
16 How he wanted to lure you away from danger into a wide and pleasant valley and to prosper you there.
17 But you are too preoccupied with your imagined grievances against others.
18 Watch out! Don’t let your anger at others lead you to scoffing at God! Don’t let your suffering embitter you at the only one who can deliver you.
19 Do you really think that if you shout loudly enough against God, he will be ashamed and repent? Will this put an end to your chastisement?
20 Do not desire the nighttime, with its opportunities for crime.
21 Turn back from evil, for it was to prevent you from getting into a life of evil that God sent this suffering.
22 Look, God is all-powerful. Who is a teacher like him?
16 How he wanted to lure you away from danger into a wide and pleasant valley and to prosper you there.
11 If they listen and obey him, then they will be blessed with prosperity throughout their lives.
1. Turn to God, turn away from your mountain of trouble
2. Have a good opinion of Him, seek Him, listen to Him, do what He tells you to do
3. Do not rebell against Him or speak evil of or complain about Him, He is the only One who can help
4. Trust Him, praise Him ...
5. Turn away from evil, turn to Him ...
you will find that prosperity is on its way to you ...
sometimes it means tithing your last dollar away ... and see how the floodgates of heaven opens up to pour out so rich blessings upon you ... as long as there is a need ... it has been proven in the lives of godly men and women time and time again ... godly because God intervened in their lives in the most desperate of situations ...
it is easy to be godly when things around us are rosy and sweet ... and sometimes complacent too ...
