"Look to God" from from Job 7:1-21

We need to study God's word. The word "I" was said 19 times, means that Job must look to himself.

In this chapter he look to himself, and asked questions to God. We can learn from the life of Job, his failures but overall he was blameless. Job here answered Eliphaz.

Do we have the hard time serving the Lord?
Our lives is full of hardship and challenges. We are more blessed than Job because we have the complete scripture and yet we doubt God.

We should read the Bible everyday just like an everyday meal and not just something we eat occasionally. In verse 1-5, Job's nights have insomnia - overwhelmed with fears.

Isaiah 40:6-7 6 A voice says, “Cry out.” And I said, “What shall I cry?”“All people are like grass, and all their faithfulness is like the flowers of the field. 7 The grass withers and the flowers fall, because the breath of the LORD blows on them. Surely the people are grass.

1 Peter 1:13 Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming.

In times of trials: Cry out to Jesus.

Psalm 8:4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?

God will test us every moment. That the hand of God is with you, that's the promise.

Isaiah 41:14 Do not be afraid, you worm Jacob,
little Israel, do not fear,
for I myself will help you,” declares the LORD,
your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

When you are down, God is up to something. He is faithful forever.
