Why Was Job Tested? P1

Job’s Open Door For Attack From Satan

Proverbs 26:2Proverbs 26:2
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

2 As the bird by wan­der­ing, as the swal­low by fly­ing, so the curse cause­less shall not come.

“… A Curse Cause­less Can­not Come…”

Job was said to be “per­fect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.” (Job 1:1Job 1:1
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

The Book of Job 1 1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was per­fect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.  

WP-Bible plu­gin
) “Per­fect” doesn’t mean he never sinned, but it means one who holds noth­ing back from God.

He was totally sin­cere and ded­i­cated to God. “Upright” refers to his char­ac­ter. He lived in such an hon­est way that every­one who knew him respected him.

Satan’s Legal Right Inflict Job

As you can see from the scrip­ture above (Proverbs 26:2Proverbs 26:2
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

2 As the bird by wan­der­ing, as the swal­low by fly­ing, so the curse cause­less shall not come.  

WP-Bible plu­gin
) — that means a curse can­not come on you unless you have an open door — sin and Job’s sin was a spirit of fear.  What was Job’s open door for the enemy to have legal right?

A Curse Cause­less Can­not Come

Heb “cause­less curse” (KJV sim­i­lar) describes an unde­served curse (cf. NIV, NRSV). The Hebrew word trans­lated “cause­less” means (khanan); it means “with­out cause; gra­tu­itous.”  Read Deut. 28 Bless­ings and Curses.

His chil­dren (all 10) did not serve the Lord.  Did he have a spirit of fear of man and did not dis­ci­pline them? He had fear for his chil­dren.  Fear is the oppo­site of faith and his fear was a form of worry which is not from God.

Job Feared Came Upon Him

Let us note the words of Job: “For the thing which I fear cometh upon me, and that which I am afraid of cometh unto me” (3:25). What this verse reveals to us is of tremen­dous sig­nif­i­cance. Before these ter­ri­ble things hap­pened to him, Job already had had fear for his  chil­dren.  They were not right­eous like him but were sin­ners.  Instead of Trust­ing the Lord for his Chil­dren, he sac­ri­ficed for their sins.

Job 1:5Job 1:5
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

5 And it was so, when the days of their feast­ing were gone about, that Job sent and sanc­ti­fied them, and rose up early in the morn­ing, and offered burnt offer­ings accord­ing to the num­ber of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job con­tin­u­ally. con­tin­u­ally: Heb. all the days  

WP-Bible plu­gin
says that Job was always offer­ing sac­ri­fices on behalf of his sons in case they had sinned.  His chil­dren were liv­ing a hyp­o­crit­i­cal, sex­u­ally sin­ful, drunken, God hat­ing lives.

Did his chil­dren honor Job?  Prov. 4:1, Col. 3:20Col. 3:20
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

20 Chil­dren, obey your par­ents in all things: for this is well pleas­ing unto the Lord.

2 The child’s duty to their par­ents is first to honor, care for and rev­er­ence them. Job’s chil­dren refused this admo­ni­tion from God and died young and sent to hell-fire forever.
Job 1:1–2 The Lord said to Satan, behold, all that he (Job) has is in your power only upon him­self (body) put not forth your hand. This pro­hi­bi­tion by God was later lifted and Satan allowed to attack Job phys­i­cally for sev­eral months.

Job Fear­ful Over Children’s Sin

Why, because Job was fear­ful lest his chil­dren would die; he was afraid that he might lose all his prop­erty. Satan’s first job is to plant this fear in man in a form of worry. If the fear is accepted, things will soon hap­pen; if it is rejected, noth­ing will come of it. Lis­ten to what Job says here “For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, And what I dreaded has hap­pened to me.” Job 3:25Job 3:25
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. the thing…: Heb. I feared a fear, and it came upon me  

WP-Bible plu­gin
(NKJV)

Satan has to get one’s con­sent before he can curse. If this con­sent is with­held, he can­not work, for man has free will. With­out man’s con­sent, Satan can nei­ther tempt him to sin nor attack him at will. So, in the case of Job, Satan first implanted a lit­tle thought of fear in Job. Hav­ing once accepted the thought, it made Job tremble.

To think that God would allow Satan to attack us with­out a cause is absurbed.  What kind of God would do this?  We don’t see any­where else in scrip­ture of God’s attack except when there is sin of some type — unfaith­ful­ness, doubt, unbe­lief, etc.

Objec­tive — Why Job Was Tested:

God did not afflict Job, Satan did.  God gave Satan per­mis­sion. Answer: Isn’t it com­fort­ing to know Satan can do noth­ing with­out God’s knowl­edge and per­mis­sion!   If Satan is attack­ing us, God allowed it because of open door.Job’s open door which is fear.

The suf­fer­ings of Christ point to the same prob­lem: Why? We can dimly per­ceive how he was “made per­fect through suf­fer­ing,” and how his per­fect sub­mis­sion to that suf­fer­ing laid the eter­nal foun­da­tion for the world’s redemp­tion from all suffering. 

All Man Sanc­ti­fi­ca­tion Process — Dying to Self

Sanc­ti­fi­ca­tion is a process of tri­als to get what is not of God out of us or to purify us.  Is there any man on earth or ever on earth who was per­fect and with­out sin?  No not at all.  Suf­fer­ing is a part of test­ing but really it is a sanc­ti­fi­ca­tion process. Job’s test­ing to see if he would turn against God.  He even had three (3) best friends who accused him. 

Paul writes, “…There is no one right­eous, not even one; there is no one who under­stands, no one who seeks God. All have turned away, they have together become worth­less; there is not one who does good, not even one” (Romans 3:10–12Romans 3:10–12
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

10 As it is writ­ten, There is none right­eous, no, not one: 11 There is none that under­standeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprof­itable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.  

WP-Bible plu­gin
).
The Bible says Job was the best man in all the East. That doesn’t mean that he was right­eous and good in God’s sight. He was sim­ply the best man from a human per­spec­tive, but even the best man is a sin­ner in God’s sight, and that includes Job. A sin­ner has no right-standing or rights with God.

How To Honor Abusive Parents

How To Honor and Respect Parents!

Some­times it is hard to honor and respect par­ents when they have vic­tim­ized you or didn’t show you love and accep­tance and made you feel unwor­thy, shame or guilty. Why do you think they did that? It is because their par­ents pro­jected that into them and then they dumped the demonic on you where you believed it for your­self. That is a lie and that is the unlov­ing spirit. The demonic comes down the fam­ily tree and keeps repeat­ing itself until some­one breaks the fam­ily tree curse.  If you grew up with abu­sive par­ents, you could be the one who breaks that fam­ily gen­er­a­tional curse.

How then is a per­son sup­pose to Honor and Respect their parents?

How can I honor my par­ents if they are demo­nized with self-hatred and self-rejection and vic­tim­ized me when I was a child and still do when I’m around them? You can honor them by thank­ing the Lord that they gave you life if you have noth­ing else to honor them with. You have to see your par­ents as vic­tims of the demonic that passed down from the fam­ily tree. Their par­ents were not able to love them, so they did not know how to love you and you can­not expect them to love you when there is a demonic of the unlov­ing spirit in them.

Plus, if a child does not learn love from their par­ents, most likely they will not learn it in their adult life.

That means you have to sep­a­rate the sin in them. They were vic­tims and have been pro­grammed by their par­ents to vic­tim­ize you! When you can see that they are vic­tims too, then it makes it eas­ier to for­give them and stop the torment.

What Paul Says to do!

That’s why Paul talks about cast­ing down neg­a­tive thoughts that are not of God in 2 Corinthi­ans 10:3–62 Corinthi­ans 10:3–6
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 through God: or, to God 5 Cast­ing down imag­i­na­tions, and every high thing that exal­teth itself against the knowl­edge of God, and bring­ing into cap­tiv­ity every thought to the obe­di­ence of Christ; imag­i­na­tions: or, rea­son­ings 6 And hav­ing in a readi­ness to revenge all dis­obe­di­ence, when your obe­di­ence is ful­filled.  

WP-Bible plu­gin
.

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our war­fare are not car­nal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Cast­ing down imag­i­na­tions, and every high thing that exal­teth itself against the knowl­edge of God, and bring­ing into cap­tiv­ity every thought to the obe­di­ence of Christ; 6 And hav­ing in a readi­ness to revenge all dis­obe­di­ence, when your obe­di­ence is fulfilled.

When you don’t cast it down as a lie, then you estab­lish as a way of life for your­self. You are going to fil­ter the lie through every­thing that comes your way. If you were rejected by your par­ents then you will feel rejected by every­one else. Every­thing they say will feel like rejec­tion. Also, because of that unlov­ing spirit, then a child, now an adult will con­tinue to go back to their par­ents over and over again think­ing some­thing will change and try­ing to get accep­tance through them. This won’t hap­pen because of the demonic spir­its work­ing in them. What a per­son has to accept is that it won’t change until they remove the lie from their hearts and minds because they believe it too! You can change it though!

What can I do?

You have to fall out of agree­ment with it and be pre­pared to walk away from it. You don’t have to con­tinue to hear the neg­a­tive voices of your mother and father into your ears. If you do, it is an evil spirit that is remind­ing you of self-rejection, self-hatred, unwor­thi­ness, all your fail­ures in life, etc. How many are still lis­ten­ing to the voices of demo­nized par­ents that vic­tim­ized you spir­i­tu­ally when they are not even around you – they might already be dead but you still hear it clearly what they said or did.

There is no way any man or pas­tor or preacher can take away those voices from your mind or mem­o­ries. There is a way to be freed from the spirit that trans­ferred into you and tor­ment­ing you through your fam­ily tree. That is the unlov­ing spirit that comes to you to accuse you and make you feel rejec­tion, self-hatred, unwor­thy, etc.

If you are going to get the work out the grace of God in you, you must real­ize you will always remem­ber those voices, they are a big part of the mem­ory, but the pain from pres­ence of that evil spirit that is attack­ing you and accus­ing can be gone. You are going to have the mem­ory but not have the accu­sa­tion or pain of the memory.

How to remove the power of the memory:

Deliv­er­ance Through God’s Word: When you hear that voice, you will know to cast it down as Paul says to do in 2 Corinthi­ans 10:3–62 Corinthi­ans 10:3–6
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 through God: or, to God 5 Cast­ing down imag­i­na­tions, and every high thing that exal­teth itself against the knowl­edge of God, and bring­ing into cap­tiv­ity every thought to the obe­di­ence of Christ; imag­i­na­tions: or, rea­son­ings 6 And hav­ing in a readi­ness to revenge all dis­obe­di­ence, when your obe­di­ence is ful­filled.  

WP-Bible plu­gin
and not let it affect you because you will know what your heav­enly father thinks of you. Mean­ing you need to dis­cern good and evil by what is being said between your ears. If it is not of love, then it is the devil accus­ing you. Cast that thought down by not accept­ing it. Sec­ond, know who you are in Christ and med­i­tate on what the word says about you. The Word of God is true not what your par­ents said.

Third, when you gave your life to the Lord, your past is erased and you have a chance to start all over new.  Of course the enemy will con­tinue to remind you of your past through voices in your head as thoughts or par­ents remind­ing you.

You can only feel com­plete with God in what His Word says about you. No man can cause you to feel com­plete. When the enemy comes to accuse you and you know what your iden­tity is, then it will not affect you what­so­ever. That is why you need to know what the Lord says about you when the enemy comes to accuse you. You see when you believe the lie, then you are call­ing God a liar as well. You are none of those things that you are accused of by the enemy or by your par­ents. You are just a vic­tim of your par­ents demonic.

That is why it hurt so bad because of their demonic and the demonic that past down to you through them through the fam­ily tree. That is why the devil knew what he was doing to accuse you because he knows your fam­ily tree.

There is no rea­son to go around in rejec­tion or self rejec­tion because your par­ents rejected you. Your heav­enly father is now your father once you became born again and you are not ever rejected by him ever even when you sin. Run to Him for your love. You have to come to the place where you don’t go to your par­ents for accep­tance. That has to stop! Real­ize you need to go to the Father since has already accepted you and loves you even when you are not per­fect. We can­not lose the love of the Father.

I know every time I have a bad mem­ory or a spe­cific mem­ory from my past or from my par­ents which has  a ping or bad feel­ing, I know I need to for­give that sit­u­a­tion and then try to turn my thoughts to the Lord or try to think of some­thing more pos­i­tive about that per­son or par­ent. What that does is repro­gram your think­ing; or what the word says renew­ing my mind. That is tak­ing every thought cap­tive. Then I fill my mind with what the Lord says about me if I heard neg­a­tive words of the past. I remind the enemy what the Lord says about me. Again, the war is between our ears and it’s a pow­er­ful war. In Eph­esians 6:12Eph­esians 6:12
Eng­lish: King James Ver­sion (1611) — KJV

12 For we wres­tle not against flesh and blood, but against prin­ci­pal­i­ties, against pow­ers, against the rulers of the dark­ness of this world, against spir­i­tual wicked­ness in high places. flesh…: Gr. blood and flesh spir­i­tual…: or, wicked spir­its high: or, heav­enly  

WP-Bible plu­gin

12 For we wres­tle not against flesh and blood, but against prin­ci­pal­i­ties, against pow­ers, against the rulers of the dark­ness of this world, against spir­i­tual wicked­ness in high places.

The begin­ning of Chap­ter 6 of Eph­esians talks about hon­or­ing our par­ents and then goes into spir­i­tual war­fare. So, if we can honor our par­ents, if they were abu­sive to you, by hon­or­ing them that they gave you life. That does not mean you have to con­tinue to go and be abused to give godly honor.

You prob­a­bly have a bro­ken heart but your heart can heal through real­iz­ing it is not them but a demonic spirit of self-hatred work­ing to hurt you.  For­give them when you real­ize it is not them but the demonic king­dom work­ing in them.

Fear Not

A time of dis­tress for Israel when her ene­mies, Ammon and Moab stood up against Israel encamped in En-gedi.  He became afraid and set him­self to seek the Lord, pro­claim­ing a fast and a gen­eral con­vo­ca­tion through­out all Judah.

 

A les­son to learn to turn to the Lord when you have adver­saries com­ing against you or speak­ing against you either in the work place or any other place.

 

King Jehoshaphat exhorts Judah to have faith in God.

 Fear Not

What does he do next to deal with fear?

 

1.  Fast

2.  Prayer

3.  Praise and Worship

 

What did he do next? To pray

 

The prayer was:

 

1.  You are the God of our fathers

2.  You are the God of heaven

3.  You rule over all the king­doms of the heathens

4.  You have all power and might

5.  None is able to with­stand You

6.  You are our God

7.  You drove the Canaan­ites out before Israel

8.  You gave their land to the seed of Your eter­nal friend, Abraham

9.  They have dwelled there

10. They have built You a sanc­tu­ary for Your name

11.  They have told us that when we are in trou­ble to stand before this house, in Your pres­ence, cry­ing to You in our afflic­tion, You will hear and help.

12.  And now, the Ammonites, Moabites, and Edomites are come to cast us out of our pos­ses­sion (your boss, evil peo­ple, evil fam­ily, evil work­ers, evil co-workers, evil friends)

13.  You will not judge them

14.  We have no might against such a com­pany (3 com­pa­nies — Moab, Ammon and Edomites)

15.  We do not know what to do

16.  Our eyes are upon You.  It is get­ting our eyes off the sit­u­a­tion but onto Christ with blind trust that He will see you through your sit­u­a­tion (job, finances, chil­dren, bills, etc.)

 

Jehos­phaphat believed the Lord and bowed his head to the ground, and all Judah fell before the Lord in wor­ship.  They wor­shipped his char­ac­ter, the promise and deliverance.

 

We can put our trust in the Lord.  He cares for us and cares about every detail for our lives.  When we get our eyes off of the cir­cum­stances onto Him, it releases the Lord to move mightely. The Lord sent con­fu­sion in the camp.

 

Vs. 20–21  “And they rose early in the morn­ing, and went forth into the wilder­ness of Tekoa; and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhab­i­tants of Jerusalem; Believe int he Lord your God, so shall ye be estab­lished; believe his prophets, so shall ye pros­per.  And when he had son­sulted with the peo­ple, he appointed Singers unto the LORD, and that should Praise the beauty of holi­ness, as they went out before the army,a nd to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth for­ever.”

 do not fear

The appoint­ment of singers to lead the army into bat­tle must have been in divine will, for as soon as they began to sing and praise God, God sent ambushes against the Moabites, Ammonites and Edomites and they were smit­ten.  God must have sent angels and the enemy became con­fused and they began to destroy each other.  This is a mirac­u­lous hap­pen­ing that, I’m sure, will take place at the bat­tle of Armageddon.

 

vs. 22 And when they begain to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambush­ments against the chil­dren of Ammon, Moab, and mount Sear, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. 

 

The Les­son in this story is trust God, get your eyes off the sit­u­a­tion, praise God in your sit­u­a­tion. What I mean praise, praise like the vic­tory has already taken place with con­fi­dence and with faith.
