What is your business here?
to you I refuse to bow.
I stopped all the drugs, which
only were two.
Now I will detox
to remove toxins that makes
one feel blue.
I wonder,
if this is how Job in the Bible
must have felt?
To lose everything
in his life
as his heart
was allowed to melt.
Satan went before God
after he went to and fro on the earth,
to see who he could hurt.
Look at Job
my servant,
upright and blameless,
not a man
you can pervert.
If You bring him to nothing
he will curse You.
Job is upright and
blameless,
there is nothing you can do.
Now, if you remove,
Your protective hand from him,
You shall see,
Job will curse you and die,
from You, all people will run and flee.
Satan is under the mistaken
impression he is equal to Him who spoke.
God brought this world
into being and all things on earth, He awoke.
Later in the future,
God sent Jesus Christ His Son.
God came down
from His place, to show us,
the battle is already won.
Jesus died for us all,
that we may walk and talk
with Him in peace.
To have daily
ongoing relationship, from our mouth
He does release.
I will wait on God
as He shows me the way
I must go.
Pain in my body?
you are nothing,
I have to many words I must sow.

Job 1:1 NKJV
There was a man in the
land of Uz, whose name was Job;
and that man was blameless
and upright, and one who
feared God and shunned evil.
Job 1:8-12 NKJV
8 Then the Lord said to Satan,
"Have you considered
My servant Job, that there is
none like him on the earth,
a blameless and upright
man, one who fears God and shuns evil?"
9 So Satan answered
the Lord and said,
"Does Job fear God for nothing?
10 Have You not made a hedge around him,
around his household, and around all that he
has on every side?
You have blessed the work of his hands,
and his possessions have increased
in the land.
11 But now, stretch out Your hand
and touch all that he has,
and he will surely curse You to Your face!"
12 And the Lord said to Satan,
"Behold, all that he has is in your power;
only do not lay a hand on his person."
So Satan went out from the presence
of the Lord.
Job 1:22 NKJV
22 In all this
Job did not sin nor
charge God with wrong.
Job 2:4-6 NKJV
4 So Satan answered the Lord and said,
"Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has
he will give for his life.
5 But stretch out Your hand now,
and touch his bone and his flesh,
and he will surely curse You to Your face!"
6 And the Lord said to Satan,
"Behold, he is in your hand, but spare his life."
Job 2:9-10 NKJV
9 Then his wife said to him, "Do you still
hold fast to your integrity? Curse God and die!"
10 But he said to her,
"You speak as one of the foolish women speaks.
Shall we indeed accept good from God,
and shall we not accept adversity?"
In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
Job 42:10 NKJV
And the Lord restored Job's losses
when
he prayed for his friends.
Indeed the Lord gave Job twice
as much as he had before.
