Today’s question comes from Job 1:8.
“Have you considered my servant Job?”
It wasn’t a question asked about Job. It was a declaration for him. God was speaking to Satan, pointing to Job with the pride of a Father. “There’s my servant. Look at him. He walks with Me. He turns from evil. He trusts Me.”
Job didn’t hear that conversation. He didn’t know he was being noticed. He didn’t see God’s spotlight shining on his faith. He just woke up one day and everything started falling apart.
The Loss. The Pain. The Silence from God. Job surely didn’t understand.
But behind the scenes, God had considered Job. Not to punish—but to prove. God saw strength in Job that even Job didn’t know was there. The kind of faith that holds on even when the lights go out.
Here is the great truth in this story: God saw Job’s faith before Satan’s test. Job’s faith was not born in the pain. It was exposed in the pain. God sees your faith too!
Maybe your world feels like Job’s right now—shaken, shattered, confused. You wonder, “Why?” You haven’t heard the answer. But don’t miss the truth: God sees you. He considers you. And He may be using your faith as a testimony.
So, walk on. You are not forgotten. You are fully known and still chosen.
