Job 29–30: Afflicted & Alone
“I cry out to You for help,
but You do not answer me.”
Truth For The Heart
“I cry out to You for help,
but You do not answer me.”
As the deer pants for the water brooks,
So my soul pants for You, O God.
“Till I breathe my last
I will not remove my integrity from me.
I hold fast my righteousness
and will not let it go.
My heart does not reproach
any of my days.”
I waited, waited for Yahweh;
And He turned and listened to my cry.
“You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin, but I come to you in the name of Yahweh of hosts, the God of the battle lines of Israel, whom you have reproached.”

Read More“What a help you are
to the one without power!
How you have saved
the arm without strength!
What counsel you have given
to one without wisdom!”
It is from Yahweh
that a person’s steps are established,
and He delights in his way.
“Do not be afraid, for am I in God’s place?
As for you, you meant evil against me,
but God meant it for good
in order to do what has happened
on this day, to keep many people alive.”
