But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. Job 23:10
Our pastor this Sunday preached a really good sermon on this very verse. I love this verse... to me, it is such an encouragement to know that God knows the way that I take. He is in perfect control of every situation.
Just a few of the points that were brought across in the message were;
1) God knows all that enters our lives. There is nothing that He does not know. {Pastor tied this into the story of Job by saying that even though Job didn't understand why he had to go though what he went through at the time, God still had a purpose in it. And God knew exactly what his situation was.} (Romans 8:28)
2) God is faithful. Even when we aren't faithful to Him, He is still faithful to us. (sorry I missed the scripture references for this one)
3) God knows our trials, whether they be big or small. He cares about all that comes into our lives. (Psalm 31:7)
4) He will get us through. "My grace is sufficient for you," God says (2 Corinthians 12:9) (1 Corinthians 10:13)
He knoweth the way that you take. Psalm 139:1-6
I know this is an unusually long post for me... usually I post the wallpapers and don't say much, but this week I just felt led to share this. Hope you find this verse an encouragement to you this week!
God bless you!
