When GOD and SATAN Have Plans FOR YOU (Part 1)

(Satan said to the LORD about Job,) "But now stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face.”The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.”  Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.  Job 1:11-12

Why were God and Satan focused on Job?

Satan had roamed the earth, to and fro.  God brought Job to Satan's attention.  Job was the focus of their conversation.  What did God see?  What did Satan see?

God saw a man who feared Him and shunned evil more than any other man in the world.  Satan saw a man who only did so for what he got.  God and Satan focused on Job's true motivation.

Every now and then, they focus on the same with me, AND YOU.

What is your true motivation?
How does it get the attention of God and Satan?

  • When you fear God to the extent that you are distinct in your surroundings, God notices.  So does the devil.
  • When you shun evil to the extent that you stand out like a candle in the dark, God notices.  So does the devil.
When God and Satan have plans for you, it is because you are faithful.

Stay faithful.

Or it may because your faith is about to fail...(Read Part 2 click HERE)
