Job 37:14-18

God does all these wonderful things. No person can do such things.

Even today, people cannot control the weather.

So we should learn that God deserves honour. He is greater than anybody else. We must respect him.

This was Job’s greatest error. In his speeches, Job concentrated on his own life (chapter 29 and chapter 31). He emphasised that he was innocent. He spoke about his own rights. But Job did not realise that God is always right (Job 32:2). Job should have spoken about God’s greatness. But often, Job preferred to speak about himself.

God is coming!

v19 Teach us what we should say to God! But we can say nothing, because of our evil behaviour. v20 We do not deserve to speak to God. We only deserve to die. v21 When the weather clears up, even the sunlight is too bright for our eyes.

v22 From the north, God comes. He is like a great king. Gold surrounds him.

v23 God is greater than we are:

• He is important!

• He is powerful!

• He is fair!

• He is not cruel!

v24 So, respect him! Do not pretend that you are wise!
