You must be in fellowship prior to your Bible study, so that the spiritual information you receive can become a source, of blessing to your soul and produce spiritual growth.


Job 31:35-36

 

 

35 Oh that [nathan] one would hear [shama`] me! behold, my desire [tav] is, that the Almighty [Shadday] would answer [`anah] me, and that mine adversary ['iysh] [riyb] had written [kathab] a book [cepher].

36 Surely I would take [nasa'] it upon my shoulder [shakem], and bind [`anad] it as a crown [`atarah] to me. KJV-Interlinear

 

 

35 'Oh that I had one to hear me! Behold, here is my signature; Let the Almighty answer me! And the indictment which my adversary has written, 36 Surely I would carry it on my shoulder; I would bind it to myself like a crown. NASB

 

 

In legal terminology, the stage is set. Job is the accused. Satan, who is the adversary of history, has presented his accusations, his indictment, his written pleadings (book), way back in chapter one.

 

Jobs three friends represent the many human viewpoint, interpretations, of the world. All of which follow the pattern of, and compliment the original accusations, of Satan.

 

Truth will sort out all of the facts of the case. God is truth. He will hear all arguments, and He will decide the matter.

 

All charges, allegations, indictments, claims, accusations against Job are now turned to an ornament of honor, of which Job will wear proudly around his neck for all of humanity, for all of the viewing public to see.

 

Suffering comes in three forms.

 

First, there is suffering due to the rejection of Christ. That is the worst form and it is permanent.

 

Second, there is suffering for discipline. This applies to believers who do not advance in their spiritual life. This suffering is intended to get their attention and serves as an encouragement, and a warning, for them to get with their spiritual life.

 

The third form of suffering is suffering for blessing. This applies to believers who are advancing in their spiritual life. This suffering serves to accelerate their spiritual growth, and serves as a strengthening catalyst for their faith.

 

All suffering, when one is advancing in their spiritual life, serves as an honor, a crown, a tribute, a credit to their character in faith.

 

Whenever anyone experiences suffering, and then if out of Gods will (out of fellowship, haven't been advancing, etc.), and then if they respond through faith (confession, resume or begin their spiritual studies, etc.), then all suffering turns to blessing, and the cursing changes from dishonor to honor.

 

The suffering may not end immediately. It may go on for years. But the transformation within your soul is far more important than any transformation viewed by the public.

End Of Lesson

Study to show thyself approved (mature) unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing (studying/discerning), the Word of truth.
