Where’s the profit?
Job
34:8 He
who goes in the company of the workers of iniquity, and
walks
with wicked men.
:9 .. often saids,
It profits a man nothing that he should delight himself
with God.
Hum… Isn’t
it ironic that so many people not only reject God and his Word.
But
all the while they are living their lives in anger, disappointment, despair,
trouble, empty and hopeless?
In futility and like this person who had the nerve
to say that living for God, delighting in God, does not profit or benefit anyone.
Perhaps there is a
bit of truth to this backwards statement, MAYBE WE SHOULD READ IT LIKE THIS. ‘
THERE IS NO PROFIT, NO BENEFIT, NO JOY, NO LIFE, NO DELIGHT, OUTSIDE OF GOD!
And unless we learn to delight in God nothing in this world will delight us, or
bring us any satisfaction, and how about this one?
THERE IS NO DELIGHT NOR PROFIT TO SERVING OR
DELIGHTING IN GOD EVEN FOR A CHRISTIAN, Unless God is the center and main focus
of our lives.
Unless God is the
delight of our lives.
Unless all and
what we do, we do for Christ! Otherwise all we do and have is VAIN.
After all
without a delight in God we will never desire the right things?
“ delight yourself in
the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart”
