The Best of the Feast
Sep. 6, 2016 –
Job 31
Care Enough To
Pray!
Please join with us
sharing God’s Word daily. We spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and
reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.
Dear
Saints,
Today we
prayerfully continue our Feast reading Job 31. Job
replies to the charge of hypocrisy and affirms his respectability. Job has
been faithful in sexuality and says he shouldn’t endure the wrath of God. He
denies selfishness in regard to the needs of those less fortunate. Job
feels he is not guilty of idolatry or self-indulgence. He proclaims his
innocence in regards to double standards and violence; “38 “If
my land cries out against me,
And its furrows weep together; 39 If I have eaten its fruit[a] without money, Or caused its owners to lose their lives; 40 Then let thistles grow instead of wheat, And weeds instead of barley.”” Job 31:38-40, New King James Version (NKJV).
Today we have
read that Job feels he is upright, and living a godly life. Yet God is
allowing him to be tested. When we are tested by the enemy we must
remember who it is that tempts us. Also remember this God tells us
how to endure the wiles of the enemy. “12 For we do not wrestle against
flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the
rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of
wickedness in the heavenly places.13 Therefore
take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil
day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having girded
your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,” Ephesians
6:12-14, NKJV. When you see a person going through trials try asking them
if you can pray for them. You’ll be amazed how grateful people can
be because you care enough to pray for them. If they reveal that
they are a Christian pray for their needs with them. Then remind
them how Jesus prepares believers (Ephesians
6) to stand against the enemy. If they don’t reveal that they
have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior, pray for their needs as well as
their salvation. Remember to be a soldier serving Jesus in all
that you say and do. If the Lord is willing I will write and post the Feast tomorrow.
Do you
hear him calling? Sinner com home? He won’t call forever, now is
the time to answer his call. Do you want to choose good over
evil? If the answer is yes, please click the following link; admenu.com/calling.html.
Today’s Verse; “Jesus
answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My
Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” John 14:23, NKJV.
God
Bless You,
Brother
