  • And god says, "watch this."
  • 00:06:04.835 --> 00:06:05.402
  • "watch this." and satan says, "watch."
  • 00:06:05.469 --> 00:06:07.037
  • And satan says, "watch." i could almost see in my mind
  • 00:06:07.104 --> 00:06:08.839
  • I could almost see in my mind lucifer kinda boastfully
  • 00:06:08.906 --> 00:06:11.809
  • Lucifer kinda boastfully sticking out his chest saying,
  • 00:06:11.875 --> 00:06:13.444
  • Sticking out his chest saying, "watch this.
  • 00:06:13.510 --> 00:06:14.077
  • "watch this. i'll show you how
  • 00:06:14.144 --> 00:06:14.878
  • I'll show you how those christians are.
  • 00:06:14.945 --> 00:06:15.813
  • Those christians are. they only serve you
  • 00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:16.947
  • They only serve you for what you give 'em.
  • 00:06:17.014 --> 00:06:18.248
  • For what you give 'em. they only serve you
  • 00:06:18.315 --> 00:06:19.450
  • They only serve you when you bless 'em.
  • 00:06:19.516 --> 00:06:20.417
  • When you bless 'em. but you take what they've got,
  • 00:06:20.484 --> 00:06:21.819
  • But you take what they've got, you let 'em go through loss,
  • 00:06:21.885 --> 00:06:23.220
  • You let 'em go through loss, you let 'em go
  • 00:06:23.287 --> 00:06:23.987
  • You let 'em go through suffering,
  • 00:06:24.054 --> 00:06:24.621
  • Through suffering, you let 'em go
  • 00:06:24.688 --> 00:06:25.255
  • You let 'em go through hard times,

  • They'll curse you to your face." and in that moment, job broken,
  • 00:06:29.126 --> 00:06:31.228
  • And in that moment, job broken, devastated, tears his garment,
  • 00:06:31.295 --> 00:06:33.764
  • Devastated, tears his garment, falls to the ground weeping,
  • 00:06:33.831 --> 00:06:37.034
  • Falls to the ground weeping, and he says these
  • 00:06:37.100 --> 00:06:37.768
  • And he says these powerful words,
  • 00:06:37.835 --> 00:06:39.336
  • Powerful words, "the lord gives,

  • Blessed be the name of the lord."
  • 00:06:44.041 --> 00:06:45.409
  • Of the lord." and in that moment,
  • 00:06:45.476 --> 00:06:46.343
  • And in that moment, i could see just the scene
  • 00:06:46.410 --> 00:06:48.779
  • I could see just the scene break and lucifer says,
  • 00:06:48.846 --> 00:06:51.048
  • Break and lucifer says, "you let me do one more thing.
  • 00:06:51.114 --> 00:06:53.250
  • "you let me do one more thing. you let me attack his body
  • 00:06:53.317 --> 00:06:55.185
  • You let me attack his body and he'll curse you.

  • And he'll curse you. he'll curse you to your face."
  • 00:06:57.054 --> 00:06:58.121
  • He'll curse you to your face." and god said, "go ahead."
  • 00:06:58.188 --> 00:06:59.356
  • And god said, "go ahead." job is not aware of this.
  • 00:06:59.423 --> 00:07:02.359
  • Job is not aware of this. job does not know

  • Job does not know what's going on.
  • 00:07:04.027 --> 00:07:04.995
  • What's going on. god gives no
  • 00:07:05.062 --> 00:07:05.963
  • God gives no explanation to him.
  • 00:07:06.029 --> 00:07:08.532
  • Explanation to him. and after a day like that
  • 00:07:08.599 --> 00:07:10.100
  • And after a day like that you would think that
  • 00:07:10.167 --> 00:07:11.168
  • You would think that would be enough for anybody,
  • 00:07:11.235 --> 00:07:12.402
  • Would be enough for anybody, but the next day boils

  • From the top of his head to the soles of his feet,
  • 00:07:16.573 --> 00:07:18.242
  • To the soles of his feet, the scripture said.
  • 00:07:18.308 --> 00:07:19.676
  • The scripture said. agonizing, tormenting
  • 00:07:19.743 --> 00:07:22.145
  • Agonizing, tormenting infection all in his body.
  • 00:07:22.212 --> 00:07:25.315
  • Infection all in his body. and his wife who is grieving

  • For ten children being dead the day before says,
  • 00:07:32.890 --> 00:07:34.892
  • The day before says, "job, just curse god and die.

  • "job, just curse god and die. we're finished.
  • 00:07:37.694 --> 00:07:38.529
  • We're finished. we've lost everything."

  • We've lost everything." and then, his friends,
  • 00:07:41.598 --> 00:07:42.799
  • And then, his friends, job's friends come and --
  • 00:07:42.866 --> 00:07:44.868
  • Job's friends come and -- you can read it
  • 00:07:44.935 --> 00:07:45.869
  • You can read it for 30 chapters,
  • 00:07:45.936 --> 00:07:47.938
  • For 30 chapters, they do nothing
  • 00:07:48.005 --> 00:07:48.906
  • They do nothing in his dark hour
  • 00:07:48.972 --> 00:07:51.008
  • In his dark hour but accuse him and tell him
  • 00:07:51.074 --> 00:07:52.442
  • But accuse him and tell him it's the judgment of god.
  • 00:07:52.509 --> 00:07:54.344
  • It's the judgment of god. and you've done secret sin
  • 00:07:54.411 --> 00:07:55.679
  • And you've done secret sin and you're getting
  • 00:07:55.746 --> 00:07:56.580
  • And you're getting what you deserve,
  • 00:07:56.647 --> 00:07:57.381
  • What you deserve, and this is god
  • 00:07:57.447 --> 00:07:58.382
  • And this is god getting back at you,
  • 00:07:58.448 --> 00:07:59.283
  • Getting back at you, and you're not righteous,
  • 00:07:59.349 --> 00:08:00.851
  • And you're not righteous, and you don't --
  • 00:08:00.918 --> 00:08:01.652
  • And you don't -- you're a hypocrite.
  • 00:08:01.718 --> 00:08:02.786
  • You're a hypocrite. they called him name
  • 00:08:02.853 --> 00:08:04.454
  • They called him name after name in humiliation
  • 00:08:04.521 --> 00:08:07.057
  • After name in humiliation for 30 chapters.
  • 00:08:07.124 --> 00:08:10.060
  • It's really something.
  • 00:08:13.697 --> 00:08:18.502
  • It's really something. and in that moment,
  • 00:08:18.569 --> 00:08:20.370
  • And in that moment, when he refused to bow,
  • 00:08:20.437 --> 00:08:22.839
  • When he refused to bow, "though he slay me,
  • 00:08:22.906 --> 00:08:24.441
  • "though he slay me, yet will i trust him."
  • 00:08:24.508 --> 00:08:26.510
  • Yet will i trust him." it was in that moment
  • 00:08:26.577 --> 00:08:28.512
  • It was in that moment that he won the victory,
  • 00:08:28.579 --> 00:08:29.813
  • That he won the victory, and the bible said
  • 00:08:29.880 --> 00:08:30.948
  • And the bible said he prayed for his friends.
  • 00:08:31.014 --> 00:08:32.883
  • He prayed for his friends. he did not die in a "why?"
  • 00:08:32.950 --> 00:08:37.421
  • He did not die in a "why?" he released forgiveness
  • 00:08:37.487 --> 00:08:38.989
  • He released forgiveness and moved into a divine purpose.
  • 00:08:39.056 --> 00:08:43.327
  • And moved into a divine purpose. you can die in your why.
  • 00:08:43.393 --> 00:08:46.229
  • You can die in your why. god may never answer your why,
  • 00:08:46.296 --> 00:08:48.265
  • God may never answer your why, but i tell you this,
  • 00:08:48.332 --> 00:08:49.933
  • But i tell you this, if you will release forgiveness
  • 00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:53.003
  • If you will release forgiveness you will move into
  • 00:08:53.070 --> 00:08:54.071
  • You will move into the purpose of the pain
  • 00:08:54.137 --> 00:08:55.672
  • The purpose of the pain that you have gone through.
  • 00:08:55.739 --> 00:08:58.141
  • That you have gone through. jesus was on the cross
  • 00:08:58.208 --> 00:08:59.309
  • Jesus was on the cross and he asked,
  • 00:08:59.376 --> 00:09:00.210
  • And he asked, "why have you forsaken me?"
  • 00:09:00.277 --> 00:09:03.046
  • "why have you forsaken me?" there are times
  • 00:09:03.113 --> 00:09:04.147
  • There are times when we cry, "why?"
  • 00:09:04.214 --> 00:09:06.083
  • When we cry, "why?" and it's not wrong to say why,
  • 00:09:06.149 --> 00:09:09.019
  • And it's not wrong to say why, but don't die in your why.
  • 00:09:09.086 --> 00:09:11.989
  • But don't die in your why. jesus on that same cross,
  • 00:09:12.055 --> 00:09:13.790
  • Jesus on that same cross, when he did not get
  • 00:09:13.857 --> 00:09:14.791
  • When he did not get an answer from the father,
  • 00:09:14.858 --> 00:09:16.627
  • An answer from the father, he said, "why have you
  • 00:09:16.693 --> 00:09:17.794
  • He said, "why have you forsaken me?"
  • 00:09:17.861 --> 00:09:18.862
  • Forsaken me?" he then immediately
  • 00:09:18.929 --> 00:09:20.330
  • He then immediately in the next verse said,
  • 00:09:20.397 --> 00:09:21.598
  • In the next verse said, "father, forgive them,
  • 00:09:21.665 --> 00:09:23.767
  • "father, forgive them, they know --
  • 00:09:23.834 --> 00:09:24.201
  • They know -- and when he moved
  • 00:09:24.267 --> 00:09:25.535
  • And when he moved into forgiveness,
  • 00:09:25.602 --> 00:09:26.803
  • Into forgiveness, he moved from a why
  • 00:09:26.870 --> 00:09:28.905
  • He moved from a why to eternal purpose.
  • 00:09:28.972 --> 00:09:34.177
  • To eternal purpose. and so, job speaks
  • 00:09:34.244 --> 00:09:36.313
  • And so, job speaks and his story --
  • 00:09:36.380 --> 00:09:36.980
  • And his story -- i mean, think with me,
  • 00:09:37.047 --> 00:09:38.682
  • I mean, think with me, how many people,
  • 00:09:38.749 --> 00:09:40.250
  • How many people, how much comfort
  • 00:09:40.317 --> 00:09:42.152
  • How much comfort has one human being --
  • 00:09:42.219 --> 00:09:43.420
  • Has one human being -- it's the oldest book
  • 00:09:43.487 --> 00:09:44.521
  • It's the oldest book in the bible.
  • 00:09:44.588 --> 00:09:45.689
  • In the bible. they tell us that
  • 00:09:45.756 --> 00:09:47.124
  • They tell us that he wrote it not personally,
  • 00:09:47.190 --> 00:09:52.262
  • He wrote it not personally, but probably and almost
  • 00:09:52.329 --> 00:09:53.697
  • But probably and almost certainly used a translator
  • 00:09:53.764 --> 00:09:56.333
  • Certainly used a translator and a transcriber.
  • 00:09:56.400 --> 00:09:58.035
  • And a transcriber. and he told his story
  • 00:09:58.101 --> 00:10:00.270
  • And he told his story and someone, unnamed,
  • 00:10:00.337 --> 00:10:02.005
  • And someone, unnamed, wrote it and it became
  • 00:10:02.072 --> 00:10:03.674
  • Wrote it and it became the oldest book of the bible.
  • 00:10:03.740 --> 00:10:05.909
  • The oldest book of the bible. and in that parchment
  • 00:10:05.976 --> 00:10:09.112
  • And in that parchment that would become a message
  • 00:10:09.179 --> 00:10:11.281
  • That would become a message all over the world --
  • 00:10:11.348 --> 00:10:12.582
  • All over the world -- do you know that the bible said
  • 00:10:12.649 --> 00:10:13.884
  • Do you know that the bible said in the book of job 42 that,
  • 00:10:13.950 --> 00:10:17.087
  • In the book of job 42 that, he lived a 140 years
  • 00:10:17.154 --> 00:10:18.989
  • He lived a 140 years after his trial?
  • 00:10:19.056 --> 00:10:20.957
  • After his trial? and what's interesting
  • 00:10:21.024 --> 00:10:22.092
  • And what's interesting about his story is,
  • 00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:23.293
  • About his story is, he did not write that book
  • 00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:24.494
  • He did not write that book or didn't have that book written
  • 00:10:24.561 --> 00:10:27.197
  • Or didn't have that book written and tell his whole story in
  • 00:10:27.264 --> 00:10:29.299
  • And tell his whole story in the middle of his trial.
  • 00:10:29.366 --> 00:10:31.234
  • The middle of his trial. he waited three years
  • 00:10:31.301 --> 00:10:32.402
  • He waited three years before he wrote the book,
  • 00:10:32.469 --> 00:10:35.372
  • Before he wrote the book, and he had someone
  • 00:10:35.439 --> 00:10:36.540
  • And he had someone write it for him.
  • 00:10:36.606 --> 00:10:37.441
  • Write it for him. he told his story.
  • 00:10:37.507 --> 00:10:38.842
  • He told his story. don't write your story
  • 00:10:38.909 --> 00:10:41.411
  • Don't write your story in the middle of your story.
  • 00:10:41.478 --> 00:10:43.947
  • In the middle of your story. don't think because
  • 00:10:44.014 --> 00:10:45.315
  • Don't think because you're hurting right now
  • 00:10:45.382 --> 00:10:47.684
  • You're hurting right now and you don't
  • 00:10:47.751 --> 00:10:48.151
  • And you don't understand right now,
  • 00:10:48.218 --> 00:10:49.486
  • Understand right now, and it makes no sense,
  • 00:10:49.553 --> 00:10:51.488
  • And it makes no sense, and you feel god-forsaken.
  • 00:10:51.555 --> 00:10:52.789
  • And you feel god-forsaken. job was right where you are
  • 00:10:52.856 --> 00:10:55.492
  • Job was right where you are right now and you're asking why,
  • 00:10:55.559 --> 00:10:58.462
  • Right now and you're asking why, and the pain is real
  • 00:10:58.528 --> 00:10:59.963
  • And the pain is real and you are numb from it,
  • 00:11:00.030 --> 00:11:01.965
  • And you are numb from it, and you are broken from it.
  • 00:11:02.032 --> 00:11:04.534
  • And you are broken from it. but don't write
  • 00:11:04.601 --> 00:11:05.602
  • But don't write your story until you get
  • 00:11:05.669 --> 00:11:07.304
  • Your story until you get to the end of the story.
  • 00:11:07.370 --> 00:11:09.106
  • To the end of the story. and if you're in
  • 00:11:09.172 --> 00:11:10.140
  • And if you're in the middle of it,
  • 00:11:10.207 --> 00:11:11.274
  • The middle of it, it looks dark,
  • 00:11:11.341 --> 00:11:12.609
  • It looks dark, but job got to looking
  • 00:11:12.676 --> 00:11:14.044
  • But job got to looking back three years later
  • 00:11:14.111 --> 00:11:15.779
  • Back three years later and he said,
  • 00:11:15.846 --> 00:11:16.646
  • And he said, "i'm gonna
  • 00:11:16.713 --> 00:11:16.913
  • "i'm gonna tell my story now,
  • 00:11:16.980 --> 00:11:18.815
  • Tell my story now, because i can truly say --"
