Day 283...(Job 7,8: Isaiah 44; Acts 19)..."Bildad Speaks"

Job's friend Bildad gives advice to Job and his troubles. In today's language it would be phrased like..."get right with God." According to Bildad, if you are right with God it will make no difference but if you are wrong with God your fortunes will be restored. Another friends opinion. Bildad would have a lot of company today. Here is what he said...

"Does God Almighty ever get things backward? It's plain that your children sinned against him— otherwise, why would God have punished them? Here's what you must do—and don't put it off any longer: Get down on your knees before God Almighty. If you're as innocent and upright as you say, it's not too late—he'll come running; he'll set everything right again, reestablish your fortunes.
Even though you're not much right now, you'll end up better than ever."
