Job 11:13-18 – The Amplified Bible
If you set your heart aright and stretch out your hands to [God], If you put sin out of your hand and far away from you and let not evil dwell in your tents;Then can you lift up your face to Him without stain [of sin, and unashamed]; yes, you shall be steadfast and secure; you shall not fear.
For you shall forget your misery; you shall remember it as waters that pass away. And [your] life shall be clearer than the noonday and rise above it; though there be darkness, it shall be as the morning. And you shall be secure and feel confident because there is hope; yes, you shall search about you, and you shall take your rest in safety. You shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid.
Do you notice that in scripture that there are a lot of “if”…”then” examples? Much of scripture is directional and full of warnings. The Word is always bidding us to make good choices. The boundaries God sets up for us are for our good. He desires that we live in peace and security. He wants good for us in all areas of our lives. When our consciences are clear, we sleep peacefully and have no fear. Purpose to set your heart aright, to follow Him and be expectantly hopeful for all His blessings!
