Topic:  The faithfulness of Job

The faithfulness and loyalty to God is best tested in moment of crises , our attitude in moment of hard times reveal if truly we are children of God. So many people are reputed to be good and men of integrity because they have never had the opportunities to be bad. All seems to be perfect with them, a integrity not proven is not yet an integrity. Job was reputed to be a man of integtity , God trusted him and he did not disappoint God when challenge came.
Job lost all in a day, his wife told him to deny his faith, his friends misinterpreted his woes as a result of his sins and instead of comforting him , they became miserable comforters, his  relatives and all those that have benifited from his wealth deserted him and despised him. Even though he could not understand what had befallen him, he had faith in God that "he lives" and in the end of it all he would redeem him
Now think of it, can you remain faithful if you are faced with unexplainable and unexpected suffering? Will you still believe that your redeemer lives?such a faith is not natural and it takes someone who have deep relationship with God, who know his ways and overtime have built his confidence and trust in God. How is your walk with God? Can your faith stand the test of crises? Do not wait till when crises come before you draw close to God, start going deep with your God in worship, devotion, prayer, word of God and living out his word daily. A Christian that is not deep with God will soon end up in a deep pit.
Prayer : Father draw me closer to you and make me strong in you as I commit myself to knowing and fellowshiping with you everyday of my life in Jesus name uh
