Job 33 – Pastor Mac Daily DEVO

…then man prays to God, and he accepts him; he sees his face with a shout of joy, and he restores to man his righteousness. He sings before men and says: ‘I sinned and perverted what was right, and it was not repaid to me. He has redeemed my soul from going down into the pit, and my life shall look upon the light.’ Job 33:26-28 – Elihu, the young, prideful man speaking is now speaking directly to Job. While boastful and conceited, and misunderstanding Job’s situation like the three miserable comforters, Elihu does drop a beautiful truth here within his windy speech. He shows what life is like beyond a prayer of repentance to God. That God accepts him, and that God is joyful about seeing his face. God will restore those who come to Him to right standing with Him so they can freely be in His presence. The person will sing with a glad heart how their sin, no matter how vile it may have been, is no longer being held against them. Hell is not their future, but the God of all light and holiness is. Know today this promise still stands for any and all who call upon the name of the Lord. Pray, tell the Lord of your choice to turn from your sin, and you want to follow Him and His ways instead. Know you will be heard and know you will be saved. I love you, but Jesus loves you more - Mac
