Good morning. Have you ever had to explain to your friends why you are in a certain predicament? Your friends have been trying to figure out if you have some hidden or secret sin, and you’re trying to explain to them that’s not it. Job had those types of friends. They kept telling him; Job you must have sinned for God to come down on you like this. What we must understand is that sometimes suffering is the will of God so that he can get the glory out of our lives. We love to quote the scripture “if we’re going to reign with him, we must suffer with him”. Sometimes it’s not sin, it’s God’s will. God is in control of everything
Job 23:10-14
“But he knows where I am going. And when he tests me, I will come out as pure as gold. For I have stayed on God’s paths; I have followed his ways and not turned aside. I have not departed from his commands, but have treasured his words more than daily food. But once he has made his decision, who can change his mind? Whatever he wants to do, he does. So he will do to me whatever he has planned. He controls my destiny.
Be blessed and continue to be a blessing Pastor Brown
