Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, and said, Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.
Job 1:20-22

A man of remarkable insight and maturity, Job released his emotion not through ranting and raving, cursing and complaining, weeping and wailing but through worship.

When Paul and Silas were in the dank, dark dungeon, they began to sing praises to the Lord. They began to worship the One they loved and served. And as they did, the prison doors opened wide. The amazing thing is, not a single prisoner escaped. Why? I suggest it was because they were so amazed that Paul and Silas praised God in the dungeon that they wanted to stick around and see how the rest of the story would unfold (Acts 16).

The same can be true of us. When you feel as though it’s dark and damp and dank and dungeony, when you feel as though everything you were hoping for, everything you trusted in has been taken away, it’s your opportunity to do what Job did, to do what Paul and Silas did. That is, you can say, “I’m going to worship You, Lord, because You’re in control and You know what’s best.”

Job didn’t have chapter 1 to read. He didn’t know what was going on. He wouldn’t know anything about Satan’s challenge throughout his whole ordeal - and perhaps not until he got to Heaven. But that didn’t matter. He chose to worship nonetheless and untold millions of lives have been impacted by his example.
