Job 2:9 (NKJV)
9 Then his wife said to him, �Do you still hold fast to your integrity? Curse God and die!�
Reflections:
Every once and a while it�s good to re-focus our telescope of faith. Life and its trials have a way of blurring the goodness of God bringing His credibility into question.
God is never the enemy, Satan is! We must not get our kingdoms confused. As to why God doesn�t always intervene when we desire Him to; the only answer we seem to have is that �His ways are not our ways.� Faith in God�s integrity is what must take up the seeming slack.
I say seeming slack, but in spiritual reality there really isn�t any slack. God is simply at work behind the scenes, as the great weaver, interweaving the affairs of men for their best good and for His glory. We see only the back side of a divine tapestry with its many knots and seeming lose ends. But occasionally (every now and then) He turns it over and it all becomes beautifully and wonderfully clear.
Many times our dilemma is of our own making; we drop the believing-ball and bring on untold personal misery by blaming God for not coming through rather than believing He is in the process. We throw our hands up and angrily stop pursuing Him, refusing to even read our Bible and pray.
We must always believe that God is always good. If we lose this, our frame of reference, we may well be in for a long spell of possible defeat. We must remember that God is love. There is no shadow or turning in Him. He cannot be who He�s not. It�s impossible, for He is Holy.
All the way through our trials God�s integrity must remain in our hearts as an impeccable and ever immutable truth. Job said it best, �though He slay me yet will I trust in Him.� The devil is our enemy...not God!
If we maintain God�s integrity in our hearts we can simply resist the devil and he must flee. Then we'll be free to look through a properly focused telescope of faith once again ...
