Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said, “Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? He that reproveth God, let him answer it.” Then Job answered the LORD, and said, “Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer Thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth.

AWESOME MAJESTY
Fair weather cometh out of the north: with God is terrible majesty. Touching the Almighty, we cannot find Him out: He is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: He will not afflict. Men do therefore fear Him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart. Job 37:22-24
THE ALMIGHTY IS THE CREATOR
But Job answered and said, “How hast thou helped him that is without power? How savest thou the arm that hath no strength? How hast thou counselled him that hath no wisdom? And how hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is? To whom hast thou uttered words? and whose spirit came from thee? …
The Death 0f Me
He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards. Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned. The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and …
Few Days and Full of Trouble
Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not. And dost thou open Thine eyes upon such an one, and bringest me into judgment with Thee? Who can bring a …
Job Nine
He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness. If I speak of strength, lo, He is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to plead? If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove …
Speaking To The Preserver Of Men
What is man, that Thou shouldest magnify him? And that Thou shouldest set Thine heart upon him? And that Thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment? How long wilt Thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle? I have sinned; what shall I do unto …
Where The Weary Will Be At Rest
For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest, With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves; Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver: Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; …

When the Almighty Answers
Job had questioned God due to the suffering he had experienced, and accusations of his friends. His friends and a young man named Elihu had falsely accused him of unrighteous acts. In today's reading (Job 37 through 39) God answers in chapters 38 through 40. The following is only a portion of God's answer. "...Canst …
Accusations and Accusers
Our reading for today is Job 33 through 36. This reading is all the words of a young man who was knowledgeable but not as much as he thought. Another accuser and some of the same accusations. By reason of the multitude of oppressions they make the oppressed to cry: they cry out by reason …
Everybody Has One
The scheduled Bible reading today is still in the book of Job, chapters 29 through 32. After Job finishes speaking a young man by the name of Elihu speaks his opinion. So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes. Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the …
Wisdom and Understanding
Our reading of scripture today is Job 25 through 28. After his friend Bildad's short comment we have Job's final discourse and thoughts of wisdom and understanding. But where shall wisdom be found?
