In Job 25 Bildad accused Job of pride. Job didn’t claim to be without sin, but only that his sin could not have been the cause of his present problems.
Response
Oh! Wow! Lord, why did Bildad refer to man as a worm (see verse 6), when Genesis 1:26-27 says we are created in Your image?
Something to think about
My Bible notes say Bildad may have simply been using a poetic description (worm) to contrast our worth to the worth and power of God.
Something to experience
But regardless, you and I can approach God boldly in faith (Hebrews 4:16).
************************
In Job 26 Job told his friends they couldn’t know everything about God because wisdom isn’t from the human mind. True wisdom comes from God.
Response
Oh! Wow! Lord, Job defended his upright and honest life.
Something to think about
Job had sought to follow God’s life instructions. Job maintained that his motives were right but admitted that he wasn’t perfect.
Something to experience
It is more important that we love and understand others rather than analyze and give advice to them. Showing compassion will move our relationships along on the right path.
*************************
In Job 27 Job was able to declare in verse 6 “I will maintain my righteousness and never let go of it; my conscience will not reproach me as long as I live.”
Response
Oh! Wow! Lord, Job was able to say that his conscience was clear.
Something to think about
Only God’s forgiveness and the determination to live rightly before God can bring a clear conscience.
Something to experience
Like Job, though we can’t claim sinless lives, we can claim forgiven lives. When we confess our sins to God, He forgives us. Then we too can live with a clear conscience (I John 1:9).
