info_outlineThe Book of Job asks some of life's most challenging questions... and the answers it gives call us to trust the Lord. But is there any benefit to trusting Him and obeying Him? Definitely! We'll unpack some of those benefits in today's podcast on Job 42: Job's Repentance and Restoration.
DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:
1. The podcast mentioned that the book of Job addresses questions like, “Why is there so much suffering in this world? What kind of power does Satan have? Can I trust God, even when I don't understand Him?” Are any of these questions ones that have you asked in the past? How have you answered them? What is the Book of Job’s answers to these questions?
2. The podcast also gave the following summaries of the advice from Job’s friends: Eliphaz derived his wisdom from age and experience. Bildad derived his counsel from the wisdom of crowds and the authority of what the experts say. Zophar derived his wisdom from the pursuit of righteousness. And Elihu derived his wisdom from the pursuit of passion and zeal. Does any of this advice frame your own thinking? If so, how can you move on from that way of thinking?
3. Once the Lord begins to set the record straight in Job 38, what has He said so far? How has the question of “who?” been the ultimate answer to the question of “why?”
4. What did Job’s repentance consist of in verses 2, 3, and 6? Why were these statements necessary for Job to say to the Lord? Have you ever said these kinds of things to the Lord? Why or why not?
5. After Job’s repentance, how does the Lord restore him? What does this teach us about the Lord’s desire to bless His people?
6. Sometimes people think that bad things happen to people because they are under judgment from God. What does the Book of Job show us, instead?
7. From what you have learned from the Book of Job, how should we think of God and His plans for our life? How can you align more with this mindset?
