Daily Reading:
Job 29-32

1.) Facts:
  • Job is longing for times past. He is reminiscing about the prosperity of the years when the Lord had a hedge of protection surrounding him. Job then goes on the claim his innocence of both outward and inward sins. He claims innocence of sins in his heart, against his neighbors and against God. Job's friends were trying to convince him that the cause of his suffering was a hidden sin or fault, Job goes on to state his humiliation but declares that he did not sin and that a hidden sin or fault has not lead to his suffering and anguish.
2.) Lessons:
  • Chapter 29: Longing for past years of prosperity will not help you in your current situation. 
  • 31:24-28 - Job affirms that depending on wealth for happiness is idolatry.
  • 31:14 - "what will I do when God confronts me? What will I answer when called to account?" Interesting thought to think about that really hit home for me.   
3.) Applications:
  • Yearning for years past will not cause your current suffering to ease and depending on wealth for you happiness or for a source that will ease your suffering is a form of idolatry. We need to strive to live a life like Job, for he was upright and a man of integrity. Can I claim my innocence like Job did from sin when my Savior calls for me to give an account of my life?
4.) Daily Meditation:
  • 31:14 - "what will I do when God confronts me? What will I answer when called to account?"
