Day 242 - Read Job 40-42

The Lord questioned Job and Job showed respect to the Lord. The Lord spoke to Job through the windstorm. The Lord describes beasts that no man could tame or conquer. The Lord explained that man was unable to tame this beast, much less conquer or tame the God who created the beast. Job repented to God and acknowledged his own lack of knowledge before Him. The Lord rebuked Job’s friends and commanded them to go to Job and offer sacrifices. The Lord accepted Job’s prayer and his friends’ sacrifices. God gave Job twice as much as he had before. Job had seven sons and three daughters. Job lived to be 140 years old before he died.
