Job's Favoritism

Published: April 19, 2024 · Reviewed: February 28, 2026

JOB 42:12-17 So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. He had also seven sons and three daughters. And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch. And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations. So Job died, being old and full of days.

Few people tell the conclusion of Job's story, many people discuss about Job's difficulties.

JAMES 5:11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.

The devil attempted to undermine Job's faith and damage him (Job 2:7). Nonetheless, Job was blessed and was shielded by God.

After the devil's assault, Job not only gained back what he had previously lost, but also doubled it.

Job enjoyed a long, healthy life filled with tremendous wealth thanks to God's favor.

You cannot have beautiful girls without a beautiful wife, and Job had the most beautiful daughters in the region.

Job also enjoyed the benefit of getting to know God much better than before.

The Lord also has this in mind for you. Blessings! God does not want you to continue to be under pressure in any kind of suffering or scarcity.

HEBREWS 6:12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

We must maintain our faith. No matter how challenging the current (temporary) conditions may seem, we cannot be swayed by them.

SAY THIS: God blessed Job greatly. God has a same plan for me

Prayer

Heavenly Father, We thank You for the story of Job, a testament to Your mercy and blessings. We pray for the strength to endure trials, just as Job did, knowing that You are always with us. Help us to keep our faith steadfast, even in the face of adversity. We trust in Your promise of blessings, and we strive to follow in the footsteps of those who have inherited Your promises through faith and patience. We believe that You have a plan for us, just as You did for Job. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
