“So listen to me, you who can understand. God can never do wrong! It is impossible for the Almighty to do evil. God pays people back for what they have done and gives them what their actions deserve. Truly God will never do wrong; the Almighty will never twist what is right. No one chose God to rule over the earth or put him in charge of the whole world. If God should decide to take away life and breath, then everyone would die together and turn back into dust. “If you can understand, hear this; listen to what I have to say. Can anyone govern who hates what is right? How can you blame God who is both fair and powerful? God is the one who says to kings, ‘You are worthless,’ or to important people, ‘You are evil.’ He is not nicer to princes than other people, nor kinder to rich people than poor people, because he made them all with his own hands. They can die in a moment, in the middle of the night. They are struck down, and then they pass away; powerful people die without help.

When we know that God knows even more than we do about the wrongs done to us, we can be confident He will make everything right in His perfect time. In this five-day study drawn from her book God Knows, Pastor Lisa helps us find constructive ways to seek biblical justice rather than vengeance.

Although Job's friends attempt to comfort him, it is only by God's revelation of His wisdom and might that Job finds true comfort. Even in deep suffering, God can do all things, and none of His purposes can be thwarted (Job 42:2).
