An Excerpt from the Book:
This is a beautiful story in the Old
Testament of the King James Version of the Holy Bible.
This story tells about Satan’s test
for Job’s obedience to God, which is true and very reliable. This is
how it all began.
Job was rich, wealthy godly man. He
did not trust in his riches or wealth. Instead, he loves and trusted
God, you understand.
Satan was Job’s greatest enemy. He
tried to get God’s permission so he could cunningly kill Job. He
wanted to be a winner and wear a winner’s robe.
In essence, he wanted to make Job sin
so he could win. God knew all the time Job would be faithful no matter
the given circumstance.
He knew that Satan did not have a
winning chance.
Therefore, God gave Satan permission
to do the test. Satan goes to work. Satan worked very hard to do his
best, so he tested Job for ungodly reason many, many days.
Satan’s greatest mission was to steal
Job’s faith in God and kill Job’s soul.
God said, “No” Satan was told. God
protected Job all the way.
Now, to this day and days ahead we
should obey God and do just what he says.
Satan lost the battle his dismay. God
always wins all battles anyway.
God
wants us to always keep the faith and pray. We will win the battle. We
will live with God forever, eternally someday.
