The David Spoon Experience 9-26-22 Part 2
These 60-minutes are all about: 1) Job had experienced a pretty solid level of protection up to this time. The move against him is the enemy’s unleashing of financial disaster. There is only one messenger, meaning there is no way to verify the information. The animals get stolen, and all the servants attached to this business adventure are annihilated. This happens simultaneously when Job’s kids are having one of their “too far gone for too long” parties. 2) The second messenger comes towards the end of the first speech. This time the news is progressively worse. How so? Because the person says, “it’s the fire of God,” specifically pointing to this disaster being because of God Himself. In this situation, the animals and the people are all torched. And the messenger, not knowing what is going on, shares that the fire has fallen from Heaven. But only God can do that? Right? Nope. 3) Now, a third messenger comes. And we thought that we have had bad days. The raiding party steals the camels (which were considered to have a higher value) and then kills all the people. It sure seems like working for Job this day is a bad idea. The farmers, the shepherds, and the servants have all died. But the worst is still on the way. Past having the basics, the appearance of divine judgment, and the loss of luxuries, the kids are the fourth devastation. And their death is by the wind, on all four sides at once, which is not normal. So, it fashions itself like the hand of God again. But, it is not what it appears to be.
