When Job prayed for his friends, the Lord gave him twice as much as before - John 42:10
As Job's painful story draws to a close, he faces a choice: how to handle his friends offering nothing but accusations and condemnation?
They basically said - If you are suffering like this, it must be because your sin has angered God
Most of us shrink from those who attack us.
Not Job:
- Job did not hold a gruge or complain to God about them
- Job prayed for them
- Job blessed those who had accused him and God blessed him in return - Job 42:10
Job took the high road and refused to hold grudges, he took an even higher road when he prayed for them
Key Phrase: Job took the high road and refused to hold grudges, he took an even higher road when he prayed for them
