These 60-minutes are all about: 1) Job stood up, and Job fell to the ground. This is not too hard to picture. Job heard the news, and before he spoke, he acted. First, he tore his robe to symbolize someone or someone so close to him that was actually touching him was ruined. Then, he went further to demonstrate (still before he spoke ) his grief and shaved his head as a sign of mourning. His hair was not as distant as his clothing because of the hair was physically connected to him. Then, before He spoke a word, he HUMBLED himself before God. He didn’t give God the finger. 2) Naked in and naked out. Paul refers to this in the New Testament when he writes to Timothy and says, “For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.” He is where entitlement bites the dust. We brought nothing of our own in. Therefore, we are entitled to nothing. By proof, we will carry nothing out. Consequently, we are entitled to bupkiss. 3) The Lord gave, and the Lord took. Even if Satan took it, the Lord allowed it. In truth, Satan is just an instrument of God’s ultimate plan. We might not want to think that God takes, but He does, And there are about 500 scriptures that prove this. Everything is His to do with as He sees fit. Whether we like it or not. If not for sin, nothing would have been taken, so whose fault is it…really?
