—Job 40:6-14
by: Kristin Camenga.
God questions Job and challenges him to match his own power. The thing that amazes me is that the ultimate goal of this power is salvation. If Job was as powerful as God, he could save himself. (v. 14) There would be no need to call on God to justify him if he could have done it himself. But this seemingly simple act of law requires the same power that created the earth, unleashes judgment on all men, and can surround itself with glory and majesty. God does have this power to save us-his ultimate power was shown on a cross when Jesus died for our sins.
