Praise God In All Situations by ACKCITY: 1:07pm On Jan 04, 2015
Job was a great man after the heart of God; a very rich man with great family, flocks of sheep, cattle and servants. "He was in fact the richest person in that entire area" Job 1:3

He had seven sons, 3 daughters, 7000 sheep, 3000 camels, 5000 teams of oxen and 500 female donkeys and employed many servants. (That is a classic example of a rich man).

His sons had feast (party) everyday of the week, each son chooses his own day to throw is own party where guests are entertained.

Because Job feared God so much, each time his sons threw a party, he goes to God to pray on their behalf, because he said it was possible they could have sinned against God (Job 1:5)

Then one day during a meeting in heaven between God and the sons of men (just like a president or a head of an organization holds a cabinet meeting from time to time with his ministers or head of departments as the case may be, where each minister or head of departments will give account for his portfolio for the period of time)

In verse 7 of Job 1, God asked Satan, "Where have you come from?" And Satan answered the Lord, and said, "From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking down it"

What does this tell us?

Satan goes around watching each one of us to see what we do, whether we do good or bad so that he can accuse us. Remember, the bible calls him the accuser of the righteous.

In verse 8: "Then the Lord asked Satan, 'Have you noticed my servant Job' He is the finest man in all the earth. He is blameless- a man of complete integrity. He fears God and stays away from evil" Job 1:8 (That means God sees everything we do even our heart.)

Job 1: 9-11 "Satan replied to the Lord, 'yes, but Job has good reason to fear God. You have always put a wall of protection around him and his home and his property. You have made him prosper in everything he does. Look how rich he is! but reach out and take away everything he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!" (That means, Satan also sees everything and he's jealous of God's children)
