Teaching series:
WINDY WORDS!
Last Week Recap:
Job was a blameless servant, who honoured God and hated evil
The devil wanted Job to curse God
Even though Job lost his wealth, sons, and daughters, he did not sin by cursing God.
Memory Verse:
“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.” Matthew 7:12 NIV”
Bible Reading: Job 16:1-5 ( Miserable Comforters)
Video:
Job’s friends visit –
Questions:
- Why did Job’s friends come to visit him? (They came to comfort him during his time of need.)
- Were Job’s friends able to comfort him? (No, Job stated that they were miserable comforters.)
- Why weren’t the words of Job’s friends able to comfort him? (Their words lacked substance and were groundlessly judgmental.)
- If the roles were reversed, how would Job comfort his friends? (He would empathize with them, putting himself in their place, and use encouraging words to bring them relief.)
Applications:
- We should always put ourselves in the position of the person we are trying to help and then treat that person as we would like to be treated if we were in a similar situation.
Prayer:
Dear Lord, help us remember to put ourselves in the place of those we seek to comfort. Let those in need see Your love through our actions. In Jesus’ name, Amen 🙏🏽
