The Day of the Wicked Is Coming

Scripture Job 21:30 For the wicked are reserved for the day of doom; They shall be brought out on the day of wrath.

Observation: All through this chapter Job is answering why don’t the wicked suffer? He goes on to say that the wicked prosper, stay healthy and appear to be doing fine. The reality is that a day is coming when everyone will be judged and the wicked will have to take their punishment. It is not ours to judge others or condemn, that belongs to the Lord. Also, when trials and tribulations come like Job’s it doesn’t mean that he is wicked for we all will go through trials on this earth, but this can be the opportunity for the righteous to shine and earn rewards if they trust in the Lord.

Application: I feel I continually go through trials unfortunately most of the time it’s an exaggeration in my mind more than a hardship. I will go through a trial in my mind before anything happens and suffer the anxiety that comes from it. In all my trials, whether true or not, I need to trust in the Lord with all of my might. I don’t know why I have such a hard time trusting my Lord He is always faithful, but I need to pray and trust more and put it in the hands of my Master.

Prayer: help me Lord, increase my faith and guide me each day in the direction you desire me to go. I’m not supposed to be here for me, but for you and I know some of the things you desire of me help me do those in a way that pleases you. I love you and desire to honor you direct my path.
