Can God Brag on You?

I know all of us, including myself, have sinned against God. But through the blood of Jesus and a repentant heart, we can begin again.

6 One day the angels came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came with them. 7 The Lord said to Satan, "where have you come from?" Satan answered the Lord, "from roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it." 8 Then the Lord said to Satan, "have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil." Job 1:6-8

Do you remember as a child how we would try to get the attention of our parents by doing our best at what we were doing in front of them? What we were attempting to do was find favor in their sight. Today, we should be trying to find favor in the eyes of our heavenly Father. In our text God has found favor in Job because Job was seeking the favor of God. Through this attempt to please God, Job was considered, with great confidence by God, to be tried by Satan.

Can God find you worthy of His confidence today because you're seeking to please Him. Are you desperately trying to please Him by being obedient to His will and His word? Well, if you're falling short or if you're straddling the fence, get off and repent; it's never too late!

God wants to have confidence in ALL of His children. Will you be one?
