After the storm

Job never broke. Satan accused Job of loving God solely for the blessings he received. The devil speculated that Job would curse God to his face if those blessings were withdrawn (Job 1:11, 2:5). Therefore, Job was tested. He faced overwhelming emotional and physical pain and endured harsh criticism from his friends; nonetheless, he prayed for them. Eventually, Job accused God— a sin for which he later repented. Through all of this, Job’s faith never wavered. The Lord honored Job’s prayer for his three friends and blessed him again.
