Job 38-39
Today's reading is Job 38-39 if you are reading the Chronological Bible...
It leaves no doubt who is the Almighty and who is not...
God is asking questions...one after another in rapid succession of Job and his "friends"...where were they when He created?....did they know all things?...what really is their power, wisdom....?
Until finally Job answers ....
Then Job answered the Lord: “I am unworthy —how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth. I spoke once, but I have no answer — twice, but I will say no more.”
Job 40:3-5
So much like Isaiah's cry...
“Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”
Isaiah 6:5
In times when we humans seem to have all the answers...it is good to dwell in these chapters...we can't stop the Hurricanes, the floods of mud, the floods of water or ice...we have no power over the changing of the weather as many say we do...nor life or death unless God intercedes...we are but mere humans...not gods...He is sovereign ...He is all...thank YOU...I am blessed that You have given us your Word, nature which points to You...
You are indeed are the Almighty ....
