Job 17:1-2, NLT, “My spirit is crushed, and my life is nearly snuffed out. The grave is ready to receive me. I AM SURROUNDED BY MOCKERS. I watch how bitterly they taunt me.
Job 17:4, FOR YOU HAVE HIDDEN THEIR HEART FROM UNDERSTANDING…
Job 17:6, “BUT HE HAS MADE ME A BYWORD OF THE PEOPLE, AND I HAVE BECOME ONE IN WHOSE FACE MEN SPIT.
Job, is in agony, humiliated before everyone! People pass him by shaking their heads! Is this job! Wow what happened! BUT I SEE JESUS IN JOB’S LIFE! ON THE CROSS JESUS WAS SURROUNDED BY HIS MOCKERS!

Mat 27:30-31, THEN THEY SPAT ON HIM, and took the reed and struck Him on the head. AND WHEN THEY HAD MOCKED HIM, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him away to be crucified.

Luk 23:34, Then Jesus said, “FATHER, FORGIVE THEM, FOR THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY DO.” ….

WHATEVER IS YOUR SITUATION, SEEK THE LORD FOR HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT WERE GOING THROUGH!
Psa 9:10, AND THOSE WHO KNOW YOUR NAME WILL PUT THEIR TRUST IN YOU; FOR YOU, LORD, HAVE NOT FORSAKEN THOSE WHO SEEK YOU.
