previously we heard people sharing about how Job’s restoration came about …
and I am sure you heard something like this also
Job’s restoration came about after he prayed for his friends
recently the Lord addressed me on this issue
He said there is no precendence on such a theory
as in if you want to be blessed in this area
pray for others in this area
if you come across such please let me know
his restoration came about because of his repentance
repentance as in how he changed his thinking
or how he feels
the fact that the Lord asked his friends to go to Job to be prayed for
could have made Job feel a sense of righteousness backed by God
even in the midst of his own trials
and this sense of righteousness
translates into answered prayers for this friends
and if he prayed for his friends
of course he would also pray for himself
hence the restoration.
the feeling of condemnation hinders answers to prayers
when God restores Job’s sense of righteousness
everything else in Job’s life’s is restored and blessed double …
even better than before …
we should emphasize greatly on the teachings of righteousness by faith
we should magnify this teaching so that God’s children
indeed feel a sense of belonging in this powerful family of the Almighty.
Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have everything we ask for in prayer.
God bless all our plans and our success.
