Spirit Wars
Today I wanted to to continue my series on healing.
for those of you who have been following along you may remember I was unable to finish my last messgae due to time contraints.
As I prayed and sought God’s heart of the matter.
That 10 min missed messaged quickly turned into a multi part series.
I’ve decided to start a new series entitled Spirit Wars
Based on Ephesians chapter 6 and 2 Cor 10
Sickenss, and disease are a result of the fall.
but it serves us well to know who took advantage of the fall of mankind in the garden of Eden.
Who is the one who causes sickess, pain, disease?
Since this is contrary to the will of God, How do we fight against it?
Well lets start this 6 part series learning how to fight the enemies efforts to steal kill and detroy
and instead push forwards God’s plans to give Life and give it abundantly
Pray
Over the last 2 years the world has has the opportunity to get involved in conflicts like never before.
It seems people are divided more than ever before.
numerous topics to disagree on
couped up for (months) years on end on our homes
finacial hardships
Health challenges
Countries invading other countries
many haved asked Why God?
never once understanding the true origin of our hardships.
Let me clearly say everything negative we have faced over the last 2 years is a demonic plan administered in the spiritual realm and carried out on earth.
The virus, economic uncertainty, the present and coming wars, food shortages, earthqakes, economic collaspes are all part of satan’s plans
but we never need to fear satan’s efforts.
For God’s fully aware of satans plans and is revealing His own plans to thrawt the enemy and bring Himself greater glory.
God’s already revealed a number of things i must do,
He will reveal his plans for you as you seek His face.
In the Bible we have a book that is known for its suffering.
a book different from every other book in the Bible
a book with a combination of prose and poetry.
Its like reading poetry, but with such rivoting insights some even question is reality.
What book am i referring to?
Can you guess it?
The book of Job.
Job’s Story
Job was a man of integrity.
He stayed away from evil, and the Lord was pleased with him.
satan, however, thought that the only reason for Job’s patience was his prosperity.
satan wanted to remove that prosperity and cause Job to walk away from God.
God allowed satan to test Job.
Job’s farm animals were stolen,
his farmhands were killed
His children were killed by a tornado.
Job stood up, tore his robe, and shaved his head.
But his grief didn’t make him angry.
It made him fall to the ground to worship God.
He praised his God even though his circumstances wanted him to do otherwise.
God was pleased.
satan wasn’t and asked if he could take away Job’s health.
Job was struck with painful boils from head to toe.
His’s wife mocked his integrity and urged him to curse God.
3 friends
Then 3 of Job’s friends heard of the tragedies and came to visit Job to comfort and console him.
At first, they sat with Job in silence because his suffering was too great for words.
Eliphaz
One friend wondered about Job’s faith.
Didn’t his reverence for God give him confidence?
Didn’t his life of integrity give him hope?
Eliphaz defended the justice of God and assumed that Job’s suffering must be a result of his sin.
It’s easy to question another’s integrity when you are not in his shoes.
He insinuated Job must have done something wrong.
Bildad
Bildad believed that Job’s children must have sinned because they died suddenly.
Sinners can expect nothing but suffering in life and dishonor in death.
Bildad speaks and theorizes that if Job is as righteous as he thinks he is, he could pray to God have everything restored to him.
He means well and hopes that Job will once again have a better life, but he still implies
Job needs to repent of some major wrongdoing.
Zophar
Job’s third friend Zophar denies Job’s claim of innocence and dares to say that Job deserved even more punishment from God.
Zophar was the harshest of the three friends.
He said Job deserved even more suffering that he was experiencing and told Job he needed to repent.
Elihu
Elihu was a younger man who waited for all the speeches to end.
He was angry at Job and at the three friends.
At Job for trying to justify himself.
At the friends because they condemned Job unfairly.
Elihu argued that Job’s sufferings were instructive, meant to draw him to a deeper knowledge of God.
Job charges that it’s easy for his friends to mock him.
They aren’t going through this horrendous trouble.
He’s upset with his friends, but remembers that true wisdom and power are only found in God.
His friends aren’t understanding him.
Maybe God would understand him?
God
When God finally speaks after Elihu, he doesn’t explain to Job why the sufferings had come to him.
Instead he calls on Job to admit how little he understands about who He is and how He works.
The climax of the book comes in Job 42:2-6 where Job confess that God alone is sovereign and repents of his own folly.
Job laments on the frailness of humanity.
He longs to get his strength and hope back.
Why should suffering occur?
Why is pain inevitable?
Why do the wicked seem to prosper and the good are punished?
Questions we’ve probably all asked at one time or another.
But what Job’s friends and Job never realized,
primarlity because this information was not given to them
But it was given to us in chapter 1
The information withheld from Job and his companions, was
who was causing Job all these hardships.
For us reading the 1st chapter we can see that its not God causing Jobs misery
