Job 42:7-17Job’s restoration begins when God intercedes, and the first thing to be restored is his relationship with those three therapists. Job takes the upper hand and prays for them. This is more than simply a vindication of Job’s righteousness, it is acknowledgment that no amount of evil experienced can overcome the power of a right relationship with God.
Afterward, all of those who would have been expected to show Job support and sympathy return to his life, and then his health and fortune are restored. The man who had lost it all returns to become again a shining example of God’s blessing and goodness.
LORD, out of all the blessings that you give us, help us to cherish the one thing we will never lose – our relationship with you.
