I Desire To Argue My Case With God – Kevin’s Quick Blog 5-29-13
Job 13:1-3 reads, “Behold, my eye has seen all this, my ear has heard and understood it. 2 What you know, I also know; I am not inferior to you. 3 But I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue my case with God.” (ESV) Wow! We can argue our case before God. This is the grace of God. Jesus died and the curtain of the temple was torn in two. We now have access to the very throne of God. One of the privileges is to be able to speak to God directly, in prayer, based on the blood of Jesus. This means praising, confessing, praying and sharing what is on our hearts. But it also means arguing our case with God. God invites us to do so in Isaiah 1:18-20, “Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool. 19 If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land; 20 but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be eaten by the sword; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” (ESV) I thank God for this privilege to come before him, in total freedom and be able to argue our case and he listens and leads our hearts gently to himself in grace and truth. What idol allows us to do that? No one. Only Jesus the One and Only True God listens and responds with unconditional love.
