The Whole World In His Hands

Job 38:1-40:5 Job’s three friends have come and gone. Elihu, a fourth friend, has even entered into the conversation and moved closer to the truth. Yet in the end, the wisdom of man has left Job with no answers. And then the one thing Job has desired and simultaneously dreaded finally takes place—he gets his chance to talk with God. But what becomes immediately evident is that the conversation is not going to unfold how he dreamed it would—but as we will see, this is for God’s glory and Job’s good. Main Idea—God has the whole world in His hands, including the continuing presence of evil.
