When Believer Goes Through Suffering

Job was a man God could trust with sufferings.  Job was stripped of all his Earthly possessions.   His family and his health,  Disease, Distress and loneliness entered his life.    His friends thought such sufferings,   came only,because of sin.  With all there earthly wisdom they accused him.     but they had nothing to offer him.   Satan is a liar,  Job did not curse God, he did not charge God foolishly.  Job  13: 15, Though  He slay me,  yet will I trust Him.  Job demonstrate his continuous loyalty to God.    When the suffering was over,  Job emerged as a better man. He was tried and came forth as gold,  Job 23: 10,  

We can’t explain fully why Christians suffer: only God knows.  God deals with each person in different ways.   Job was not able to see the picture as we saw it.  because we have the bible, the word of God  is for our learning.   Read it and be wise, practice it to be holy. Satan the accuser of the Brethren came a round with his tricks, and at times we fall for his tricks.  When Job see God in His holiness and Glory,  it make a big difference.  God blessed the later end of Job even more than the beginning.   Hebrews 12: 11,  tells us No Chastening for the moment seems to be joyous, but grievous:  never the less after word it yield peaceable fruit   of righteousness.
