‘I need you God to come see about me’… a line from Jonathan Traylor’s song, You Get The Glory From This. How often have we felt this way in life? God, where are you? I need an answer. Why Lord? Why is this happening? What is taking so long? I need you to come see a about me God! I need you now! 

Job was about as low as he could go. Everything in his life went very wrong! Everything was taken from him. His friends came and addressed him and basically told him it was all his fault, that he had brought the judgment of God upon himself. Job then started in his final discourse to them with, “When my steps were bathed in butter and the rock poured out rivers of living water for me…”. 

He was referring to days of God’s favor upon his life. He continued on about how respected he had been and all the ways he had been a righteous man before his God. He then turned to speak of his current pitiful status. How he now is even taunted by those considered outcasts and vile in his town. Finally, he then turned to the Lord and said, “I cry unto You, but you do not hear me…”

God finally speaks to Job out of a whirlwind… “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth…”. God continued on chapter by chapter, proclaiming His sovereignty, wisdom, majesty, and power over all of his creation, from the constellations above to the fire breathing creatures of the sea, to the glory of the nostrils of a horse!

God then says to Job, “Will he who argues with the Almighty instruct Him? He who rebukes God let him answer it”.  Job answers God in shame and humility saying, he will put his hand over his mouth, he will say no more.

As His very own children, we must trust and remember who God is at all times. I think it is natural in some situations to question God, but that didn’t go so well for Job! He was lectured and put in his place by God Almighty Himself.

I believe we all should read Job Chapters 38-41 from time to time, lest we forget whom the God is that we serve. Yes, God has many attributes, and yes many of us call Him friend, even best friend as I do, but let us never forget our God is the glorious one, so glorious in fact there isn’t even any need of a sun in heaven!  The God whom the angels cry out holy, holy, holy and must cover their eyes with their wings as they hover around His throne.

Oh let us adore Him Saints!  May we fear the Lord God, our creator, our maker, and always give Him the honor and glory He alone deserves. He is never not just and never not sovereign. He is the omnipotent one. He is the omniscient one. He sees all and knows all and is ruler over all! There is none like Him! He never changes and we can put all of our trust in Him alone! 

In everything He does, in everything He allows, may we always stand on Romans 8:28, for those that love God, all things work together for good, according to His purpose.  Let us remember how big He is, how amazing He is, how He can be nothing but good at all times. He is the definition of good! 

We will understand so much more on the other side of heaven, but I’m guessing it will take us all of eternity to learn and comprehend the depth of our God’s wonder, majesty and awesomeness!



Every single creature in this realm and in every other realm in existence, hallelujah, will bow and acknowledge forever more, God is ruler and Lord of all! He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Glory to the God of the universe! Hosanna in the highest!  Glory to the one who is coming in the clouds for the final victory, glory to the one and only … the great I AM!!!
