FAITH CAPSULE: Does this speak to you?

Job 1, 2

The Bible describes Job, “There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil.” (Job 1:1)
One with the fear of God is complete before God. 
The story of Job testifies to one with the fear of God, experiencing the wicked hand. 
Despite the faithfulness of Job, he was exposed to the attack of Satan but could not become terminated. 
He lost all his wealth; Satan attacked his health; Satan attacked his character; Job lost His property and children. 
Above all, his wife and friends ridiculed his faith.
In it all, Job remained persistently faithful and did not despise God. 
Job experienced brokenness in all areas of his life, but his breakthrough was intact when God responded to his faithfulness.
Job 42:12-15 records the response of God to the faithfulness of Job, “Now the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, one thousand yokes of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys. He also had seven sons and three daughters. And he called the name of the first Jemimah, the name of the second Keziah, and the name of the third Keren-Happuch. In all the land were found no women so beautiful as the daughters of Job, and their father gave them an inheritance among their brothers.”
In the brokenness of Job, God upholds him for his breakthrough.
In life, to be broken comes before a breakthrough.
To be broken comes to the glory of the Almighty God. 
Fear God, walk consistently, and be relevant in line with the word of God. 
Are you with the experience of overnight changes; you are down, friends can no longer help, and desertion is showing their faces everywhere you turn? 
You can hardly count on anyone for help, while it seems you are the only Christian experiencing out-of-place. 
All that surrounds you is beginning to wonder how long you will endure what you are going through. 
Complaint, discouragement, or self-destruction is not what you need. 
You need to know that God will see you through if you keep seeing through with the mirror of the word of God. 
God has a plan for you. 
Isaiah 63:14 buttresses, “As a beast goes down into the valley, and the spirit of the LORD causes him to rest, so You lead your people, to make yourself a glorious name.” 
The point here is that God constantly wants to be glorified and make Himself a glorious name. 
When your breakthrough arrives, the glory of God shall be your mark.
Job is a testimony. 
God will see you through and know that you are not alone.  

Prayer for today: Ask God, “O Lord my God, look upon me and let me not live a life of failure, in the name of Jesus.
