What does the book of Job say about God's character? Part 1

1. God pays attention to people. 
In Job 1:8 the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?” 

Here are three things that I see in this verse:
a. God knows us by name. 
b. God notices good things in us. 
c. God gives his evaluation of our lives

2. God blesses and protects people.
In Job 1:9-10 we read:" Then Satan answered the Lord and said, “...Have you not put a hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land."

What can we see in this statement?
a. God protects us and our posessions
b. God blesses the work of our hands
c. God incrfeases our posessions

3. God defines destiny of people

In Job 1:12 the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him do not stretch out your hand.” 

Here are three ideas from this verse:
a. God has power over Satan
b. God has control of what we have
c. God sets the limits of suffering
