Job 21‐23  (Daily bible reading)

Text of focus: Job 23:10 KJV

But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

The omniscient God knows all about you, depend on Him wholly without a plan B. Let God be your plan A to Z, He is the Alpha and Omega.

Psalm 37:5 KJV

Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

You have ambitions, plans, and desires for the year, let God be glorified in His own way and not your schemes. 

Psalm 1:6 KJV

For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

The Lord knows all your ways, let it all be to the glory of God. Keep your focus on God this year and make no haste, for when God has tried you, you will come forth as gold.

Summary 

The chapters read today (Job 21 to 23), addressed some of the comments of Job's friends that came to console him and Job's response to them. They want to force Job into accepting that he was a sinner. They were clueless about the cause of his calamity, they wanted to justify God by condemning Job. They confidently boasted in their wisdom and they were certain that Job had sinned. We need to be very careful not to sin against God by our perception of others.

God is just, irrespective, we don't have to condemn others to justify God. 

Again, there are many things we do not understand, let's rather keep quiet about them. 

James 3:2 KJV

For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.

God has not called us to judge and condemn others.
