Title: God of Rule / Job 12:13-25
Content Job 12:13-25
God who rules
Who we are governed by is an important issue.
is it satan?
Is it God?
1. God is wise and powerful
Verses 13-14: “Wisdom and power belong to God, and counsel and understanding belong to him; and when he breaks down, it cannot be built up; and when he shuts up a man, he cannot let it go.”
Wisdom and power belong to God.
--especially power
>>>> It means authority and power. That precious thing belongs to God.
2. God rules nature
Verse 15: “When he puts the water away, it dries up, and as soon as he brings out the water, it turns the earth upside down… ”
--Mentioning the creationism issue....You need a firm belief that the heavens and the earth were created by God.
3. Rule the country and nation
Verses 23-25: He made the nations great, He destroyed them again, He made the nations vast, He brought them back into captivity, He took away the understanding of the rulers of the peoples, He made them wander through the wild, pathless wilderness, He made them wander in darkness without light. makes you groan and stumble like a drunken man.>
--The road to prosperity of the country...It is to serve God well.
It is said that during the Roh Tae-woo administration, a Buddha statue was well enshrine in the Blue House.
However, when President Kim Young-sam took office, the Buddha image was removed, and as the country became difficult in various ways, many people in the Buddhist community removed the Buddha image, so it was said that the country was in trouble.
So there are stories that the Buddha was brought in again.
I don't know if it's true or not, but would such a Buddha image protect the country?
4. He is the God who rules each and every one of us
Verses 17-22: “He drags counselors naked and leads them to fools as judges, unties kings and girds their loins, and drags priests naked, overthrows those in power, and speaks the words of the faithful. He takes away the knowledge of the old, pours out contempt on princes, loosens the bands of the strong, reveals secrets in darkness, brings the shadow of death into light...
Let's surrender to the power of God and live a life that entrusts everything to us.
