Job 38 – Pastor Mac Daily DEVO

Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding. Job 38:4 – God now speaks into this whole situation. Yet, without directly answering Job’s or his friend’s answers, God quickly establishes His greatness over theirs. This chapter is filed with questions like verse 4. Questions that could only be answered with, “Only you Lord,” “No I haven’t,” or just plain silence. Take note that God isn’t here seeking to humiliate Job by all this, God though is seeking to show He is far different than Job or any of the miserable comforters that have surrounded him this whole time. God is far greater, far wiser, and far more powerful than any man. With such a vast separation between our might and God’s, and our understanding and God’s, God is calling us to trust Him. If we can’t even make the sun rise one day, then let’s trust the One who has each and every day since creation. While it can be difficult to let go of control, reading over a chapter like this one can help us see that God can handle things far better than we can. Trust whatever it is to the Lord and let Him work how only He can. I love you, but Jesus loves you more - Mac

Question To Ponder: What is something that when you see it or think of it causes you to awe at God’s greatness?
