“Stand for Something or You’ll Fall for Anything”
Job suffered incredible hardship but his faith in God did not waiver. He held firm to the reality that His Redeemer was the Living God who could not be overcome by evil. Calamity could not overcome Him and neither will it in our lives. Can you stand firm in faith even when life presses down hard?
• Our faith is in God, not in our gold. One letter difference can make all the difference. Are there any “extra letters” weighing you down? Acknowledge God in this way and lean on Him. How can you do that today?
• How can you come along side of someone like Job in your life without saying too much? What words could encourage even those who are heavy laden?
• What do we know about the coming Kingdom of God? Find and discuss things that we know for sure will happen and discuss how a “now but not yet” understanding of God’s Kingdom realities helps us take a stand for what is true.
