Job 30:20-31:40

• Self-examination: Where am I with You, Lord?
• The just shall live by faith. We have faith in God, even though we may not understand His ways. We don’t have to understand. He is God. He understands.
• If I lost it all, would my hands stay lifted to the God who gives and takes away? If You take it all, this live You’ve given, still my heart will sing to You!
  - I’m Still Yours, Kutless
• When we abide in Christ, nothing can hurt us in judgment.
• “The wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.” – James 1:20
• God is merciful when we stumble. That’s grace.
• The love of God involves a reverent fear.
• Even when God does not answer your prayers right away, you are not insignificant to Him. You are not a heap of ruins. He hears your every cry. Be patient, He will rescue you!
• “I will rejoice in Yahweh!”
• I don’t know how I will physically survive, but I do know how I will spiritually survive!
• Stop being so focused on what YOU want and start focusing on what GOD wants for you.
• Resist the devil and he will flee from you. But maybe not right away. And he will probably come back. Lean on God!
• It is way easier to keep a bird out of your house than it is to get the bird out once it is there. Likewise, it is way easier to not sin than it is to stop sinning. Resist temptation!
• Set your life to sail towards righteousness!
• God is just and fair. He will deal with sin. In His time.
• Watch that in your zeal you do not become the devil’s puppet.
