If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. — Job 22:23

It certainly does. I feel there are so many life lessons in Job. It is an example of all the things that can and will happen in a lifetime. How “man” will treat you in those times, and that sometimes that treatment will be not Godly, no matter how well intended. That God is in control of it all. From the inception until the redemption. There are just so many, many valuable life lessons. We could be here all day listing them all.

Yessss!! It sure should be no matter what. We might know know what is going on but The LORD God knows the beginning and the ending. Delighting in the One who wants none of us to perish will always keep us on the right path :) <3

Why yes I do Brother :)
I love chapter 1 and 2. Oh and 28.
My favourite verse in Job is: Job 28:28 :) You’ll might see it in a few days. I usually post it when it’s in my daily reading. :)

(I couldn’t help looking it up. Excellent verse).
28 “And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.”

and isn’t that what every one is looking for, wisdom, and understanding? And here it is straight from God’s mouth how to get it :)
People don’t always understand why I like chapter 1 and 2 but the faith God had in Job is so admirable. It also shows God conversing with the devil. One would think that if the devil was in God’s prescience it would be, I don’t know, all dramatic. Yet we see here it was a conversation. How many of us can say that God would say this about us, “have you considered my servant(insert name here)?
