Job 38:2
“Brace yourself like a man: I will question you,
and you shall answer me.”
The Lord Interrogates
The Lord is speaking here and seems
to be speaking in a tone of authority.
We can find ourselves questioning Him and expecting Him to answer
us. Here we see the Lord saying that He
will question us and He expects us to answer Him. When was the last time you allowed the Word of
God to question you and you answered?
Have you ever sensed His still small voice speaking to you? It is a good thing to sense the searching of
God and respond when you hear His questions. He could be asking us why we are
doing something. He could be questioning
us about our mischaracterization of Him.
He could be asking us about something we have done. We would do well to put ourselves as the ones
being questioned rather than always questioning Him. As we give Him answers we might be surprised
to find out that His questions were well directed and intended to bring out of
us that which we might have been blind to.
Brace yourself. He will question
you. You shall answer Him.
