Misrepresentation of God in Job

 



Misrepresentation of God in Job:

 

1.    God is an enemy.

2.    God does not care.

3.    God’s actions have no rhyme or reason.

4.    God is not fair, or just?

5.    God created evil????

6.    God is NOT as smart as man. Knowledge…Wisdom.

7.    God is distant, an absentee landlord.

 

Being touched by Satan and assuming it is God!

 

Do I continue to see God as an enemy?

 

Do I see his might (whirlwind, etc) as an intimidating force? 

Yes!!! But is that Force for me or against me?

 

Knowledge & Wisdom; comes from close contact with God. 

Could it be that previous generations were privy to this as well?

 

God cares. 

Ask the animals, birds, the earth itself, and the sea creatures too!

 

Is it possible that I am an enemy, because I am camped with the enemy of God? 

Have you not heard of the Stockholm Syndrome... the kidnapped turns favorably to the captor?

 

I heard God is LOVE. “Olam chesed yibaneh”, Psalm 89:2 in Hebrew. 

It means, “The world is built on LOVE”. 

This holds true for all creation. 

Love cannot be bought with threats or coercion.

 

The vulnerable, innocent infant of Bethlehem 

is the victorious, imperial Sovereign of the universe. 

He alone is Chesed (LOVE). 

This leaves no questions unanswered!

Will you accept this answer too?

    Trusting in God’s Love.
    May my perception and understanding never stagnate.

Walk with ME… Isaiah 1:18

Image
 Isaiah is given a message to deliver to the children of Judah. Imagine having to approach your own family, to deliver this message. (Remember the kind of respect given to Jesus in Nazareth?) These were Isaiah’s kin. They had seen him from his very infancy. Isaiah knew well the pride and uniqueness of the family of king David; his own family. The message was not one of sweetness and praise. The message was truth, simple truth, cutting truth.     The chosen children had wandered far away. Their special purpose was corrupted. Covenant terms were flaunted and forgotten. The holy name, Jerusalem, was equal to the shame of Sodom. Mount Zion was as low as Gomorrah. In fact The prophet is instructed to call them Sodom and Gomorrah. Would I have the guts to call my own family “Sodom” or “Gomorrah”, straight to their faces?     Even now, can you see the look of disappointment in our LORD’s face? Can you see Jesus on the brow of the last hill before Zion? Even the colt He was riding on could fee

At Calvary's Cross

Image
At Calvary’s cross;         It seemed all was lost.                                               It looked like the enemies had won.                                               The devil was dancing.                                               His minions were celebrating.                                               The powers were satisfied.                                               Yet their peace was shaky.   At Calvary’s cross:         The sun could bear it no more.                                               Wind wished to wipe off the whole lot.                                               Rocks desired to crush the crucifiers.                                               Earth was hungry to swallow                                               Fire, hail, and rain held their breath.                                               As birds and all creatures in silence wept.   At Calvary’s cross:         Lord, your mother’s heart was pierced.

Love and Live!

Image
  Love and Live!   The one and only God, I AM. Ahead of Me there’s no other I AM your life and love, none else.   Life and love are they visible? So sculpt nor paint images of Me. Much less what I have created.   Worship or serve no other gods. Like a jealous lover, I love. Grace and Life to those who love Me.   My name please take to glorify. Misuse dishonors sanctity. Abusers will be found guilty.   Forget not! Day seven’s holy. Creator, Redeemer I AM. Memorial of what I’ve done.   Embedded in all creation. Seven circle’s my signature. Celebrate love and life with Me.   In parents you see Me faintly. Cherish and honor them always. Long life and love will follow thee.   Kill not a body or spirit. Repute is e’en greater than life Take not what you cannot replace.   True love doth honor another. Grab not another’s purity; If only in your thought and heart.   Possessions of others take not. Though they may never miss them. Honest work gives sleep and shalom.   Embrace truth; it never cha
