God reveals the answers to life - Job 12-13

Once again Job is both defending himself to his accusers and vindicating himself toward God; wise in regard to the former but foolish toward the later. In the process of doing so he spends some time in the later part of chapter twenty-two dewelling on God's character. (If her were to stop there it would be great.) In Job 12:22 he gives us some great words to meditate upon today. God reveals the secerts of life: "He reveals mysteries from the darkness and brings the deep darkness into light." This entire section is full of great truths to calm our hearts and challenge our minds, but knowing that God reveals deep things to us is truly a provoking thought. Paul tells us at the end of Romans 11 about the depths of God's revelation. He gives us some insight into God's mystery in one of the most glorious sections of God's Word in Ephesians 1. Moses tells us in Deuteronomy 29:29 that the "secret thigs belong to God." God is the revealer of mysteries. He is the holder of mysteries. He alone knows the secrets of life. We have so many "philosphers; psychologists; and politicians" who believe they know the mysteries of life. But, if they "stumble" onto anything worthwhile at all, it is because God has decided to use them as a tool or voice for His revelation. Develop a personal relationship with the Revealer of Mystries. Meditate today on Job 12:22.
