BLESSED FROM CASTING OUT FEAR

My Dear Precious Child, In the poem about Job, the author of the poem wrote that Job's comment after every curse from hell came upon him was that what he feared had come upon him. (Job 3:25) Job's children were people who liked to party in occasion orgies and Job was afraid that they would sin even more, so in fear he sacrificed daily just in case his children sinned. When the very things that he feared actually happened to him, Job confessed that the very things that he feared in his life had come upon him in the worse degrees. On a day that Job's children were eating and drinking to excess at the home of the oldest brother, while Job was sleeping a messenger came to him and told him that people from another country had come and taken all of his oxen and donkeys and killed his servants with a sword. The messenger was the only one to escape. While Job was still sleeping another messenger came and told him that lightning had struck his sheep and the shepherds who tended to them, killing them all. That messenger was the only one to escape. Then the same thing happened to the camels, their having been stolen by other people and the tending servants had been killed. Then the thing that Job feared the most, relating to his own children, happened. A huge wind came and blew down the four corners of the house where Job's children were eating and drinking wine, killing all of the young children of Job. The messenger behind that bad news was the only person to escapee. (Job 1:13-22) Job shaved his head, took off his robe and fell down naked, wailing that he had come into the world without possessions and he was going to leave the earth without anything. He cursed the day that he was born. However, Job did not blame Me for his misfortune, although he cursed the day that he was born. He professed that he was not at ease, nor had he found rest, nor was he quiet, yet trouble came to him and was still coming upon him. It was then that Job's three friends began to give to Job their assessments of the reasons as to why such horrible problems had come upon Job so suddenly, none of which was the real truth. It wasn't until Job stopped listening to his friends did I speak marvelous things to him as to why his friends were blaming Me. I questioned Job about where he and his friends were when I created the earth, the animals, the birds, the sun, the moon and human beings, if they were so arrogant as to think that they knew the reason why Job was cursed. Not one of his friends had the truth. Only when I spoke to Job out of a whirlwind, asking who it was who was seeking counsel without knowledge did Job begin to have truth relating to his currently being so desperately cursed. Only when I finished speaking truth to Job did he begin to understand his predicament. He finally apologized to Me and told Me that he spoke things that he did not understand, things too wonderful for him to know. Then Job spoke truth concerning his situation. He said that he had only known Me by the hearing of his ears from the mouths of other people, but when he met Me face to face and his spiritual eyes saw Me and he discerned that I am all good, only then did he repent of his questioning words. (Job 42) Fear was Job problem. The demon of fear in Job was an open invitation for the devil to curse Job's life in every area. Through fear Job had sown seeds in the devil's cursed garden in the earth and he had received the devil's inheritance of being cursed in every area of life. When Job began to intimately and personally know Me was when I was able to reverse the devil's curses in Job's life and restore everything many times over. He began to sow seeds in My Garden of Life. The demon of fear is an enemy of My children. Yielding to the demon of fear is believing in the devil's curses as your inheritance instead of your having faith in My blessings as your inheritance. Cast out fear because it exalts itself against Me and My knowledge. (II Corinthians 10:5) Your Father of Faith and Goodness
