Job: Where's Wisdom?

This week’s message centers on Job 28, a poetic pause in the book where Job reflects on the mystery of true wisdom. While humanity can dig deep into the earth to uncover treasures, wisdom cannot be mined, bought, or earned. No amount of effort or wealth can uncover it, for true wisdom is not a human achievement—it is divine in origin. It is found only in God.

Job concludes, “The fear of the Lord, that is wisdom” (Job 28:28). In a world full of noise and confusion, Job reminds us that wisdom is not ultimately found in understanding why we suffer—but in knowing the One who rules over it all. When life is confusing, the call is not to figure everything out, but to fear the Lord, walk in reverence, and trust the One who holds all things together.
