Looking for Job

Looking for Job
Job 7:17-20
- That’s the first time that Job speaks about God!
- He knows that what has happened to him is abnormal!
- He sees a strategy against him!
- Everything is made to destroy him!
- He doesn’t know it is the devil so he thinks it’s God!
- That’s why he can’t understand!
- Moreover we don’t know how the relationship between God and Job works, we only know it is a very strong link!
- We can imagine that something is wrong as if it was cut, as if the link was cut!
- Imagine the relationship between God and Adam, they used to speak directly, how would Adam react if it disappeared?
- Imagine all the faithful ones connected with God through visions or dreams and then nothing!
- How would they react?

Looking for Job
Job 9:2
- Job recognizes that we are nothing compared to God, that we know nothing!
- Sometimes when we have to cope with difficult situations, it is difficult to understand what’s going on!
- Maybe if we had more information about the relationship between God and Job, it would be easier to understand why he says what he says!
- As there is a missing link, we can rely on God saying about Job that there is no one like him on earth!
- If it is not a valuable testimony, what do we need?
- It is like a lamp illuminating darkness and opening our minds to the book of Job!

Looking for Job
Job 9:4
- What a balance “wise in heart and mighty in power”!
- What a balance “wise and mighty”
- Are there better words to qualify God?
- And Job knows God personally!
- These words are a testimony!
- Also about his faithfulness!
- What powerful words!

Looking for Job
Job 9:6
- All the forces of nature made by God are powerful!
- Many people die every year because of them!
- And as the human population keeps growing, the death toll increases too!
- Because of human activities we may increase their consequences!
- But man always thinks of the present and not of the future!

Looking for Job
Job 9:8
- The universe is made of emptiness and yet there is so much activity
- And everything is balanced, the whole keeps together in spite of everything going in every direction!
- And we can say the same with the oceans: they are so powerful!
- And yet the only thing we find is polluting them and destroying life inside!
- We can see the majesty of God and man appears as a rat: but he will never be able to destroy God’s creation!

Looking for Job
Job 9:12
- God could have erased the devil and the demons and Adam and so on as the ridiculous human dictators usually do!
- But no, he let them all act to prove through God’s justice that they are liars and that God is the only one who can govern the universe and all its creatures!
- That’s why we have to bear human rats acting and bringing misery to humanity till God would have proved we are only rats unable to govern ourselves!
- That’s why we have to wait for God to put an end to this FARCE!

Looking for Job
Job 9:14
- This verse is incredible: it tells a lot about Job’s relationship with God!
- You can be close to someone but yet show respect and here Job says “choose my words carefully to argue with him”!
- I don’t remember something so deep!

Looking for Job
Job 9:15
- What does being right in front of God mean?
- He is the creator of everything!
- The universe is incredible!
- We don’t know anything!
- We have everything to learn from God!
- Even the possibility of living forever in the future won’t be enough!
