    Job's Friends

    based on 14 ratings
     | 22,428 views

    Rather than show sensitivity to Job’s affliction, his friends critique him...and were dead wrong. Let’s be careful when we appraise people. And let’s be cordial when we disagree.

    I recall a fight I had in seminary. I was arguing with another student over some theological matter, when he got mad and slugged me. Before I knew what was happening, I left the room, but not under my own power. A student walking by saw what was going on, grabbed me, and whisked me out before ...read more

     | 7,940 views

    The man at the pool of Bethsaida had lost his will to achieve, and blamed others. Jesus, however, gave Him his self-worth as well as his health. Do not blame prejudice or racism for failure; turn to Jesus and be healed and motivated.

    The day dawned like any other day ... a little chillier, maybe, than you might have expected this time of year. But still, about as gray and bleak and unpromising as any other day. After all, every day was about like every other day. What reason did he have to expect anything different? For 38 ...read more

    Paul set us a good example of serving God through his afflictions, with fortitude and with integrity.

    It is amazing and beautiful to see how Paul comes to know God and experience Him as the God of all comfort despite his trials and tribulations. • Most people would complain about their sufferings and question God. “Why me?” and “What this?” when we have been serving Him so faithfully? • Some may ...read more

     | 7,897 views

    When we see God at work, sometimes no words are necessary. Sometimes, there is nothing we need to do but focus on God’s grace. Our best choice is to sit silently, and rely on what God has said to us.

     | 17,571 views

    David's prayer is that God will hurry up and deliver him from persecution. However, his life also demonstrated submission to God by not taking matters into his own hands.

    Psalm 70 As we begin, I want to advise you that this Psalm is a repetition, almost word for word, of the last part of Psalm 40. This theme was so important to David, he included it in two of his Psalms. VS. 1 Hurry Up, God! When we try to rush God’s Timing it is because we feel an ...read more
