The Story of Job

Job: Then Job stood up, tore his robe, and shaved his head. He fell to the ground and worshiped, saying, “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked, I will leave this life. The LORD gives, and the LORD takes away. Praise the name of the Lord.” Job 1:20-21

The Story of Job Job: Then Job stood up, tore his robe, and shaved his head. He fell to the ground and worshiped, saying, “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked, I will leave this life. The LORD gives, and the LORD takes away. Praise the name of the Lord.” Job 1:20-21 Job’s wife: Do you still retain your integrity? Curse God and die! Job 2:9

The LORD gives, and the LORD takes away. Praise the name of the Lord.” Job 1:20-21 Job’s wife: Do you still retain your integrity? Curse God and die! Job 2:9 Job: You speak like a foolish woman. Should we accept only good from God and not adversity? Job 2:10

3 May the day of my birth perish… 4 If only that day had turned to darkness! May God above not care about it, or light shine on it. 6 May that day not appear among the days of the year or be listed in the calendar. 11 Why was I not stillborn; why didn’t I die as I came from the womb? 26 I cannot relax or be still; I have no rest, for trouble comes. Job 3

God never wastes the pain of His people. We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28

God never wastes the pain of His people. 1)Every Christian will see “good” come out of their bad. 2)They will see that “good” either in their lifetime or in heaven. 3)Regardless of whether they have a good attitude about their bad days, God will deliver on His promise to bring good out of bad.

Attitude toward bad days When do you see the good that God brings out of the bad days? Example GoodOn earthPaul GoodIn heavenStephen God never wastes the pain of His people.

I will be happy for the good days. And when the bad days come I will also accept them as from God, because I believe that God ALWAYS has a good purpose behind every bad day and He will ALWAYS bring good out of bad. God never wastes the pain of His people.
