In yesterday’s reading we learned how God allowed Satan to take away job’s riches, even his children. Satan had challenged God saying Job was only fearful of God because he had nothing to fear. But when Job lost everything his response was grief, followed by worship. Never once did he accuse or curse God. Satan had underestimated this man’s heart for God. Today we’ll see God remove another layer of protection, allowing the enemy to attack Job himself, leaving him without his health, but still alive. He’ll be joined by his friends and his wife, those closest to him who should offer comfort and encouragement. How will they respond to Job’s challenges?
