June 15, 2025, Job 1:1-5
1 There
was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job, and that man
was blameless and upright, one who feared God and turned away
from evil. 2 There were born to him seven sons
and three daughters. 3 He possessed 7,000 sheep,
3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys, and very many servants,
so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east. 4 His
sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day, and they
would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. 5 And
when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send
and consecrate them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer
burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, “It may be
that my children have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts.” Thus
Job did continually.
A man like Job isn’t found
often even in the pages of the Bible. He
lived daily to please God and be an example for his family.
What changes do you need
to make today to please God?
Who might be watching you
to see if your talk and your walk match?
Pray today that you can
represent God in a way that pleases him.
