The processes Job lived through are more than ours.

The processes that we live are not even half the processes that Job lived

Job 1 Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960)
The calamities of Job
1 And there was a man in the land of Uz, named Job; and he was a perfect and upright man, fearing God, and turning away from evil.
2 And to him were born seven sons and three daughters.
3 And his substance was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred asses, and very many servants: and he was a man greater than all the men of the east.
4 And their sons went and feasted in their houses, every man in his day: and they sent and called their three sisters, that they might eat and drink with them.
5 And it came to pass, when the days of the banquet were past in turn, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "Perhaps my children have sinned, and blasphemed against God in their hearts. So he did every day.

JOB a nice man in the eyes of God prosperous in every way jehová was always with him and defended him for being his beloved son and faithful to him despite the fact that his children sinned against God and thus lost their lives. But it is not always to have everything in abundance the enemy wanted to show God that Job was not faithful without all his goods and riches but the impressive thing is that God always trusted in the faithfulness of his son and did not allow Satan to touch Job's life only to prove his faithfulness.

JOB 1:8-12
8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou not considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and upright man, fearing God, and turning away from evil?
9 And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
10 Hast thou not compassed him about, and his house, and all that he hath? To the work of his hands thou hast given blessing; therefore his goods have increased upon the earth.
11 But now put forth thy hand, and touch all that he hath, and thou shalt see if he blasphemeth not against thee in thy very presence.
12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy hand; only lay not thy hand upon him. And Satan went out from before the LORD.

God only gave him the possessions that Job obtained but ordered him not to touch his life Job was only his dead children without wealth everything was taken Job was lamented and complained against God the death of his son plus the loss of all his land if we read the story of Job. he wondered what sin he had committed to merit so much Job desired death before living like this he reached a level where his body was full of sores but something impressive is behind all this regret that he never cursed God if on the day of his birth but never cursed God.

Here we have a great man of example his processes were very strong his body was full of diseases and his wealth destroyed but even so in the middle of his wilderness he did not curse God he always spoke with God and trusted that only he could get him out of that trial Job had no food his house was destroyed his dead children, but even so his trust in God always had the tube. We are humans who must be tested many times with our food God provides daily but it is a matter of trust on our part but we still complain because we want more but it turns out that we are not ready because if God gives us more we will put in the first place the material and not the love of God.

It is about that as people we change because we were born in a world where we cling to the material and we believe that without that we can not live but in reality who is going to give us eternal life is jehová of the armies the rest are only additions that I place in this earth samples we live our processes in it and learn not to cling to them if we do not seek the grace the love of God because he is the one who sustains everything. Let's live confident that he will send us the daily manna and we won't miss the next day let's fill our hearts with the abundance of God not of the things of the world let's take care of our eyes and the temptations because of the things that we lack in that we will be tested but firm with the eyes in God we must wait and not deviate.

Sort:  

Job was an integral man, however he was tested like gold, and his faith was passed through the fire, he remained firm and never blasphemed against God, that is the conduct to obtain our greatest victories.

love and love his word God first has to try to polish us like a diamond and forge us like gold and then use us with great purpose and a talent he gave us.
