Job: God Speaks

May 11, 2025    Jeff Noble

This week’s message walked through Job 38–41, where the Lord finally answers Job—not with explanations, but with overwhelming presence and questions that reveal His wisdom, power, and majesty. Speaking from the whirlwind, God doesn’t defend Himself or detail the reasons behind Job’s suffering. Instead, He invites Job to look up—beyond himself, beyond his pain—and see the vastness of divine wisdom.


God’s response teaches us that He speaks in storms, not just in whispers. He is not frantic when we are fearful. He is “other”—unfathomable, sovereign, yet deeply personal. Through creation, rhetorical questions, and a divine tone of awe, God reminds Job (and us) that He is in control of all things, down to the smallest detail of our lives. Most importantly, God is not absent in our suffering; He’s present, purposeful, and calling us to trust Him even when we don’t have answers. When we shift our eyes from our wounds to His wonders, we find the freedom of faith.
