Then Job
answered the LORD and said: “I know that You can do everything, and that no
purpose of Yours can be withheld from You. Job 42:1-6 NKJV
IF you can find time, read Job chapters 38-41 to fully
grasp the magnitude of Almighty God. In these verses, God confronts Job’s
arrogance with a series of questions that proclaim the complete power of God
Almighty. God asks Job who and where and when did you create the world and all its glory? Have you and do you know and can you explain
how all things work? These Scriptures expose the greatness of an all-powerful
Creator. With great humility, Job responds that God’s power exceeds everything.
The story of Job invites us to witness human suffering
up close. From great abundance to complete despair, Job struggles to understand
his tragedies, but he misses the most important point. God is Sovereign! God
asks us the same questions that He asks Job, and in reply, we must confess that
God’s ways are higher, beyond our finite minds. Like Job, we should respond
with awe and gratitude, “I've been talking about things far too wonderful for me!”
Lord, I constantly talk about things I do not understand, worry about
situations I cannot control, try to plan my future without even grasping my
present life. Expose my pride and weariness, my doubt and anxiety, my self-righteousness.
Great is Your faithfulness. –dho
