I know that my Redeemer lives. This is one of the phrases that Job used when he was passing the most terrible trial, this man without questioning God endured this whole process, as the book of Job narrates.
A man who, without a doubt, although he had his body full of leprosy, did not stop glorifying God at any time in his life, but he was faithful until the end of his trial and disease.
One day the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, among whom satan was also present. When God asks satan about Job, satan replies: “Job is faithful to you for all the goods he has”. But this was not so, because God gave him to prove to Satan that with riches or without riches Job was faithful to Him. In spite of all the material that he lost, he remained perfect before God.
For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
Job 19:25
We can say that this man named Job knew that someday this great trial would end, we see this because of his statements in these circumstances, because he glorified in spite of everything.
And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
Job 19:26
The blessings of God are lasting, this man was blessed by God in a great way, because this man was righteous, faithful, and knew how to glorify God in trials. Even his flesh being scourged did not deny the power and majesty of God, because there was a time when his wife said “curse God and die”, but through this trial his flesh would see God.
Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
Job 19:27
These are really words that, just like they came out of his mouth, were comforting words, words of encouragement, sincere words, He was sure that all this great trial would end someday.
It does not matter that you lose everything, believe in God, trust in Him. God never fails, we believe, as this man believed faithfully, but in the end he won.
