Faith Amid Turmoil Lesson # 6

“ ‘I know that my redeemer lives and that He shall stand at last on the earth.’ ”“ ‘I know that my redeemer lives and that He shall stand at last on the earth.’ ” Job 19:35Job 19:35

Key Questions: 1. What strategies does satan use to make us think that faithfulness is an impossibility? 2. What defenses do we have against his subterfuge (deceit, scheme)?

How Ordinary People Win Extraordinary Battles 1. Job1. Job 2. Abraham2. Abraham 3. Ruth3. Ruth 5. Esther5. Esther 4. Daniel4. Daniel

Job: Victory in Trial Job’s life is a clear illustration of how satan targets God’s people in the great controversy. Why did satan want to test Job? Job 1:11

A. Curse God and give up. Job 2:9A. Curse God and give up. Job 2:9 B. Trust God and draw strength from Him to continue/look to the future. Job 19:25-27

Abraham: Covenant Faith Through the covenant God becomes our heavenly Parent and we become His children. It begins with Him and establishes a community of people who exercise love, faith and obedience in Him. (1 Peter 2:9)

Abraham

Abraham’s faith came under the most severe test when God commanded him to sacrifice Isaac. What do we need to give up? Nothing must come between us and God.

Ruth: A Gentile in the Messianic Line God loves everyone and is willing and able to save ALL. We only need to accept Jesus as our personal Savior and Lord. John 3:16. Acts 10:34, 28

God does not limit the plan of salvation to any particular race (Rev. 14:6. Matthew 24:14). He is Lord of all, the Sovereign of the Universe.

Jesus lovesALL nations! He loves …YOU.

Daniel: God More Than Life. (Luke 17:33. Matthew 10:39)

trust God. God’s people have been severely persecuted and have had to worship in “cave churches”. This happened in the “Dark Ages” … and it is going to happen again in the last days! We need to trust God. 2 Timothy 3:12

Esther: “If I Perish, I Perish.” the Lord can arrange events to help those who are faithful to Him Romans 8:28The word “God” does not appear in the book of Esther, yet from start to finish, it shows how the Lord can arrange events to help those who are faithful to Him. Romans 8:28

What have we learned from the other main characters in the story about Esther? 1. Ahasuerus 2. Haman 3. Mordecai

Summary: Satan could use neither temptation, pain, grief, confusion nor the threat of death to convince the people we studied about this week that it was impossible to follow God. Note: We all have our trials over which we must triumph as individuals - through faith and trust in God. We need also to study the Bible and pray every day day.

Through prayer, by cooperating with Him, and by accepting His strength and grace they learned that “those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint” (Isaiah 40:31, NKJV).

In spite of the turmoil in the world we must have faith - just a little longer and we will triumph with Christ! Revelation 17:14 & 12:11
