Job 8:1,3-4, Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said: … DOES GOD SUBVERT JUDGMENT? OR DOES THE ALMIGHTY PERVERT JUSTICE? IF YOUR SONS HAVE SINNED AGAINST HIM, HE HAS CAST THEM AWAY FOR THEIR TRANSGRESSION.
Bildad said, “YOUR PUNISHMENT SHOWS THAT YOUR GUILTY AND YOUR KIDS GOT WHAT THEY DESERVED!”. BILDAD, NEVER CONSIDERED HIS PAIN, NOR HIS SUFFERING!
Job 8:5-6, IF YOU WOULD EARNESTLY SEEK GOD AND MAKE YOUR SUPPLICATION TO THE ALMIGHTY, IF YOU WERE PURE AND UPRIGHT, SURELY NOW HE WOULD AWAKE FOR YOU, And prosper your rightful dwelling place.
Isa 3:10, “SAY TO THE RIGHTEOUS THAT IT SHALL BE WELL WITH THEM, FOR THEY SHALL EAT THE FRUIT OF THEIR DOINGS.
Job, IF you were pure, live with integrity, and seek HIS face then HE would delivery you! YET, God doesn’t help you? YOU REAP WHAT YOU HAVE SOWN JOB!
Job 8:15, HE LEANS ON HIS HOUSE, BUT IT DOES NOT STAND. HE HOLDS IT FAST, BUT IT DOES NOT ENDURE.
Job, you didn’t build your home, on the ROCK, that’s why it came crashing down!
Mat 7:24-25, “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I WILL LIKEN HIM TO A WISE MAN WHO BUILT HIS HOUSE ON THE ROCK: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; AND IT DID NOT FALL, FOR IT WAS FOUNDED ON THE ROCK.
While truth may be found in Bildad’s words, HE LACKED COMPASSION, HE LACKED MERCY, BUT WHAT HE TRULY LACKED WAS KNOWING GOD!
2Cor 1:3-4, Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, THE FATHER OF MERCIES AND GOD OF ALL COMFORT, WHO COMFORTS US IN ALL OUR TRIBULATION, THAT WE MAY BE ABLE TO COMFORT THOSE WHO ARE IN ANY TROUBLE, WITH THE COMFORT WITH WHICH WE OURSELVES ARE COMFORTED BY GOD.
