- The Book of Job takes us on a journey through suffering and lament—one that is extreme in every way. Join us as we explore the Book of Job chapter by chapter, and ask yourself what it might look like to continue to include God in all the wild seasons of your life. We’ll cover a new chapter every week, so read along!
In this profound acknowledgment, Job reminds us of God’s incomparable wisdom and power. Despite his own suffering and the whirlwind of his circumstances, Job recognizes that true wisdom and strength reside with God. This is a powerful statement of faith, acknowledging God’s sovereignty over all aspects of life.
Job’s words invite us to consider our understanding of God’s wisdom and might. In our world, it’s easy to be swayed by the wisdom of the age and the prevailing thoughts and opinions surrounding us. But Job points us to a deeper truth: that God alone has ultimate wisdom, counsel and understanding.
In our daily lives, when faced with decisions, challenges or the quest for understanding, let’s remember to turn first to God. His wisdom transcends our finite understanding and offers us an eternal and profound perspective.
Today, let’s take a moment to reflect on where we seek wisdom and strength. Are we looking to the world or turning to God, the source of all wisdom and might? In our quest for understanding, let’s embrace the wisdom that comes from above, trusting that God’s counsel is perfect and His understanding is complete.
As you go through your day today, we pray that you find guidance in His wisdom, strength in His might and comfort in His unfailing counsel.
