Besides Still Waters - 7

The Banquet

Esther 5:4

“If it pleases the king,” replied Esther, “let the king, together with Haman, come today to a banquet I have prepared for him.”

The Lord Gave & The Lord has taken Away

Job 1:21

and said:

  “Naked I came from my mother’s womb,

 and naked I will depart.

 The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away;

 may the name of the Lord be praised.”

Accepting Adversity

Job 2:10

He replied, “You are talking like a foolish woman. Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?”
 In all this, Job did not sin in what he said.

In six troubles

Job 5:19

From six calamities he will rescue  you;

 in seven no harm will touch you.

Yet will I trust Him

Job 13:15

Though he slay me, yet will I hope  in him;

 I will surely defend my ways to his face.

I shall see God

Job 19:26

And after my skin has been destroyed,

 yet in my flesh I will see God;

Prayer 

. Lord, You picked Moses to do something he didn't really want to do, and he claimed to be an unskilled speaker. But Acts 7:22 reveals that Moses was a powerful speaker, so now we know that was a lie. Forgive me, Lord, when I try to lie to You and reject a task that You have put on me. Grant me the courage to move forward even though I think I'm not qualified. Help me to accept every job You assign, and realize that You will provide "on the job training." In Jesus' Name, Amen.
