Romans 8:24-25 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope, for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for, but if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
Job: 1:8-9 And the lord said onto satan, hast thou considered my servant job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? Job was a man that loved the lord and he walked upright before him. Job had everything a man could want in this life. Job was put to the test, his love for God, or his love for things. The devil was trying to prove that job loved God because of the things God gave him, not because he was God. God knew job’s heart, and he was going to prove to the devil that he was wrong. Job was in the middle of a challenge, between God and the devil. Our love for God is being challenge by satan every day, he wants to prove that our love for God is based on the things that God gives us, more then loving him for being God. If you love God for who he is, then lets prove the devil wrong, and not get caught up in things, but get caught up in God, the things will follow. Can God count on you.
