Job's Suffering

Theme: Suffering

Biblical Basis • Job 1:1, 2:1-13

Job was a wealthy and prosperous man who was faithful to the Lord in all his ways. But Satan claimed that Job’s faithfulness was only due to the favor God had shown him. Satan proposed that if he was stripped of all his blessings, Job would turn away from God.

Additional Text: Romans 8:18-28

Lesson Prayer

Faithful God, you are the source of all peace and comfort. In times of suffering, may we be reminded of the glory that is to come because of your steadfast love for us. Thank you for giving us your Holy Spirit to intercede on our behalf and for continuing to give us hope, no matter what we face. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
