Have you ever heard the statement, ‘If you are getting resistance in your life as a Christian, or a minister’, you must be doing something right? Another words, the more the opposition, the more the devil is trying to upstage, what God is doing in your life. You are automatically assumed to be on the ‘right track’. Yikes! Dangerous thinking! Recently I have started hearing this again, as if that statement is a guidepost for discerning the will of God in one’s life. This could be a dangerous assumption, and be more trouble that the oppositions one is facing. What about Job? Yes, God did give the devil permission to cause all the havoc and loss, for Job. He was, I believe wanting to reveal Job’s righteousness to the enemy. I also believe He was also testing Job, and his friends. But GOD “was in” that persecution from the enemy. I believe, God dumped enormous grace, on Job to be able sojourn that difficult journey. In the end Job was rewarded double, and regained all that he lost. My own
