Job 1:1 (KJV) There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
Job 1:13-19 (KJV) And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
[14] And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them:
[15] And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
[16] While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
[17] While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
[18] While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
[19] And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
VERY BRIEFLY I WANT TO USE FOR A TOPIC
(WHAT TO DO WHEN ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE IN YOUR LIFE)
NOW FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH ME SAYING HELL FROM THE PULPIT
YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT HELL IS A FACT OF OUR EXISTENCE
AND IT AMAZES ME THAT THE LORDS CHURCH IS FULL OF SAVED SANCTIFIED FILL WITH THE HOLY GHOST PEOPLE
WHO REFUSE TO ACCEPT THE REALITY OF HELL BECAUSE IN THIS LIFE WE FIND OURSELVES
EXPERIENCING HELL -CATCHING HELL -OR GOING THROUGH HELL
AND A LOT OF TIMES WE FIND OURSELVES USING THE WORD HELL LOOSELY
A LOT OF TIMES WHEN IT'S HOT OUTSIDE SOME
OF US FIND OURSELVES SAYING IT'S HOT AS HELL
AND EVEN SOMETIMES WHEN PEOPLE MAKE YOU MAD YOU TELL THEM TO GO TO HELL OR THEY ARE CRAZY AS HELL
BUT TODAY I WANT TO REFER TO THE WORD HELL AS TROUBLE
BECAUSE OUR TEXT IS CENTERED AROUND A MAN WHO EXPERIENCE HELL BREAKING LOOSE IN HIS LIFE
AND THE FRIST THING WE NEED TO COME TO GRIP WITH
IS THAT LIVING A LIFE OF FAITH WILL NOT PREVENT HELL FROM BREAKING LOOSE IN YOUR LIFE
YOU CAN COME TO CHURCH 365 DAYS A YEAR
24 HOURS A DAY-7 DAYS A WEEK
AND PRAY 7 TIMES A DAY --AND FAST 5 TIMES A WEEK
YOU CAN BE A PREACHER -DEACON -AN USHER-
A CHOIR MEMBER- A TITHER-PRAYER WARRIOR OR A PEW MEMBER
BUT NONE OF THESE THINGS WILL PREVENT HELL
FROM BREAKING LOOSE IN YOUR LIFE
CAN I TELL YOU WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT
BECAUSE WHEN HELL BREAK LOOSE IN YOUR LIFE WE FACE
Trials, temptations, troubles, AND testing
WE EXEPERIENCE AN OUTSIDE FORCE TRYING TO STEAL OUR INNER JOY
THAT'S WHY THE SONG WRITER SAID
THIS JOY THAT I HAVE THE WORLD DIDNT GIVE
IT TO ME AND THE WORLD CAN'T TAKE IT AWAY
AND IT`S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT
OUR FAITH IN GOD IS NOT AN
IMMUNIZATION FROM THE STORMS OF LIFE
BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO LOOK FOR TROUBLE
TROUBLE WILL FIND YOU
AND THAT BRINGS ME TO THE 1 ST SPRITUAL
NUGGET I SEE IN THE TEXT IS THAT
JOB GOT THE TEST TO GO THROUGH HELL BECAUSE HE WAS THE BEST GOD HAD
Job 1:8 (KJV) And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
YOU SEE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
GOD KNEW THAT JOB HAD BEEN TO EVERY PRACTICE
AS WELL HE KNEW THAT JOB WAS IN GAME
SHAPE-AN HAD STUDIED THE PLAYS-AN KNEW THE GAME PLAN
AND THAT IS WHAT NEEDED WHEN ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE IN YOUR LIFE
BECAUSE TROUBLE COMES TO THE BEST OF US
AND NO ONE IS EXEMPT FROM TROUBLE
AND THE TROUBLE YOU RUN FROM OVER HERE
WILL FOLLOW YOU OVER THERE
AND IF THE TRUTH BE TOLD
YOU CAN'T OUT RUN TROUBLE
YOU CAN`T HIDE OR DISGUISE YOURSELF FROM TROUBLE
NO MATTER HOW MUCH WEAVE YOU WEAR
NO MATTER HOW MANY TATTOOS YOU HAVE
TROUBLE STLL HAS AWAY OF FINDING YOU
FOR EVEN JOB SAYS IT BEST
IN THE 14TH CHAPTER VERSE 1
Job 14:1 (KJV) Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.
WELL THE 2ND SPRITUAL NUGGET 1 WANT TO LIFT UP IN THE TEXT IS
THAT SATAN'S ACCESS TO OUR LIFE IS LIMITED BY GODS SOVEREIGNTY OVER OUR LIFE
SATAN HAS SOME POWER IN THE WORLD
BUT GOD HAS ALL POWER OVER THE WORLD
CAN 1 TELL YOU WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT
YOU SEE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
SATAN ONLY HAS SO MUCH POWER -SO MUCH ACCESS
NOTICE IN THE TEXT
SATAN TOOK JOB'S POSSESSIONS-HE TOOK JOB'S
CHILDREN--HE INFLICTED JOB' S BODY WITH DISEASES
AND RIGHT WHEN HE TRIED TO TAKE JOB' S LIFE
GOD STEP IN AND SAID YOU DIDNT GIVE HIM LIFE AND YOU HAVE NO POWER TO TAKE HIS LIFE
JOB 1:21 SAYS
FOR IT'S THE LORD WHO GIVES AND THE LORD WHO TAKETH AWAY
BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD
YOU SEE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
GOD DID GIVE SATAN ACCESSS TO THE WORLD
BUT GOD HAS NOT GIVEN SATAN SOVEREIGNTY OVER THE WORLD
SO HE CAN ONLY DO WHAT GOD PERMITS HIM TO DO
HE CAN ONLY GO WHERE GOD PERMITS HIM TO GO
HE CAN ONLY TOUCH WHAT GOD ALLOWS HIM TO TOUCH
YES HE HAS ACCESS TO THIS WORLD
BUT GOD HAS CONTROL OVER THIS WORLD
GOD WILL ONLY ALLOW SO MUCH CONFUSION
SO MUCH SICKNESS TO LINGER
SO MUCH DARKNESS TO OVERSHADOW US OR DEATH TO DEFEAT US
YES MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
WICKEDNESS IS WIDE-BUT GODS MERCY IS
WIDER
IN OTHER WORDS BEFORE SATAN CAN EVEN PULL UP IN YOUR DRIVE WAY
HE HAS TO HAVE A PERMISSION SLIP FROM GOD
WELL THE 3 RD SPIRITUAL NUGGETT I WANT TO LIFT UP IN THE TEXT
IS THAT GOD DOSE'NT HAVE TO EXPLAIN HIMSELF WHEN ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE IN OUR LIVES
AND EVEN THOUGH GOD DOES`NT HAVE TO EXPLAIN HIMSELF
BUT HE WILL REVEAL HIMSELF WHILE WE ARE GOING THROUGH HELL
AIN`T IT AMAZING THAT EVERYBODY SEEM TO HAVE OPINION WHEN HELL BREAK LOOSE IN OUR LIVES
AND EVEN WHEN YOU GO TO THE 2ND CHAPTER VERSES 7 THRU 13
EVEN HIS WIFE AND 3 FRIENDS SHARE THERE OPINION ABOUT JOB SITUATION
HIS WIFE TOLD HIM THAT HE SHOULD STAND UP
AND LOOK TOWARD HEAVEN AND CRUSE GOD AND DIE
HIS 3 FRIENDS TOLD HIM WHY HELL WAS BREAKING LOOSE IN HIS LIFE WAS BECAUSE OF A SECERT SIN
BUT GOD DIDNT SAY A WORD
AND EVEN WHEN YOU GO TO THE 3 RD CHAPTER
JOB CRIES OUT TO THE LORD IN VIOLENCE
HE COMPLAINS ABOUT THE DAY HE WAS BORN
HE COMPLAINS ABOUT HIS LIFE
AND IN THE 6TH CHAPTER HE WISHES HE COULD DIE
BUT WHEN GO TO THE 13 TH CHAPTER JOB ASK GOD WHY
AND GOD STILL DIDNT ANSWER JOB
BUT WHEN YOU GO TO THE 38TH CHAPTER VERSES 4-11
GOD CALLS JOB INTO THE COURT ROOM OF
HUMAN EXISTENCE
NOT TO ANSWER JOBS QUESTIONS
BUT TO PUT JOB ON THE WITNESS STAND FOR
JOB TO ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS
FOR GOD ASK JOB
WHERE WERE YOU WHEN I LAID THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH ?
AND WHO LAID THE CONERSTONE OF THE EARTH
WHERE WERE YOU WHEN ALL THE MORNING STARS SANG TOGETHER AND ALL THE SON OF GOD SHOUTED FOR JOY?
GOD REVEALS TO JOB THAT HE IS INFINITE
AND WE ARE FINITE
GOD IS THE CREATOR WHO CREATED YOU IN MYOWN IMAGE
IN OTHER WORDS GOD REMINDS JOB AND US
IT IS HE THAT HAS CREATED US AND NOT WE OURSELVES
THEN GOD ASK JOB COULD HE EXPLAIN GOD`S CREATION?
CAN YOU OVERSEE MY CREATION ?
CAN YOU SUBDUE MY CREATION ?
AND JUST LIKE THE HEAVEN IS HIGHER THAN THE EARTH SO IS MY WAYS HIGHER THAN YOUR WAYS
SO MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
WHEN ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE IN YOUR LIFE
DONA T THROW A PITY PARTY
BUT A PRAISE ---PARTY
BECAUSE WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT HOW GOD HAS MADE AWAY OUT OF NO WAY
WHEN THINK ABOUT HOW HE HAS
BROUGHT YOU THROUGH DANGERS SEEN AND UNSEEN
HOW HE HAS BEEN YOUR BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER
A COMPANY KEEPER IN YOUR LONELY HOUR
YOU OUGHT TO GIVE GOD SOME PRAISE
BECAUSE WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT HOW GOOD THE LORD HAS BEEN TO YOU
HOW HE HAS BEEN YOUR
BURDEN BEARER
HEAVY LOAD CARRIER
HEART FIXER AND MIND REGULATOR
I CAN`T HELP BUT GIVE GOD SOME PRAISE
AIN` T GOD ALRIGHT
AIN'T HE WORTHY
AIN`T GOD WORTHY
I SAY AIN`T GOD WORTHY
AND THE REASON WHY HE'S WORTHY TO BE PRAISE IS
HE DIED -OH HE DIED
BUT EARLY –I SAY EARLY
SUNDAY MORNING HE GOT UP
STEP OUT ON RESURRECTION GROUND AND DECLARED THAT ALL POWER
IN HEAVEN AND EARTH IS IN HIS HANDS
