Wednesday, December 2

Strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your very face.—Job 1:11.

 

Satan attacked Job’s belongings, robbing him of his wealth, his servants, and his reputation in the community. He attacked Job’s family, robbing him of his ten beloved children. Then he attacked Job’s body, robbing him of his health by afflicting him with painful boils that covered him from head to foot. Job’s wife was distraught and overwhelmed with grief; she urged him to give up, to curse God and die. Job himself wished for death, but still he kept his integrity. Then Satan tried a different method of attack. He used three men who were companions of Job. The men visited Job for days, but they offered no comfort. Instead they heartlessly lectured and scolded him. They claimed that God was behind his troubles and cared nothing about his integrity. They even suggested that Job was a wicked man who deserved the terrible things that were happening to him!—Job 1:13-22; 2:7-11;15:4, 5; 22:3-6; 25:4-6. w19.02 4 ¶7-8

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.

Satan attacked Jobs motives. That's why it's so important that we do a self examination and ensure that we have the right motives.
