Job 34:10-12 & Job 42:1-6

1 Passage: Job 34:10-12 & Job 42:1-6

1 Verse: Verse 6. "Therefore I retract, and I repent in dust and ashes."

1 Prayer: Thank You, Father, for the example of righteous Job. If he, a man so much greater and more faithful to You than I am, had to retract his false statements about You, how much more so must I. Please help me to cultivate and maintain a repentant heart, knowing that no matter how close we get, no matter how much I think I am growing in knowledge or understanding, that You are ever greater and beyond complete comprehension.

Job 42:7-10

1 Passage: Job 42:7-10

1 Verse: Verse 8. "Now therefore, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to My servant Job, and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves, and My servant Job will pray for you, for I will accept him so that I may not do with you according to your folly, because you have not spoken of Me what is right, as My servant Job has."

1 Prayer: Father, thank You for accepting Jesus' sacrifice to atone for my sin. I have not spoken of you what is right, nor have I been righteous and faithful as Job was in the midst of his suffering. I have cursed You to Your face and kindled Your wrath. But I have also received Your grace. Thank You for not doing with me as my sins deserve. Thank You for allowing Jesus to receive the penalty that I have earned. Even today, Father, I beg You not to treat me according to my folly. Spare me from my sin and its consequences for the sake of Your name. Undo the wrong I have done and instead allow me to do right in Your name.

Prone to leave the God I love;
Here’s my heart, O take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above."
