“There is no attribute of God more comforting to His children than the doctrine of divine sovereignty.” - Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Elihu teaches Job that God's Sovereignty has sympathy His majesty has mercy! Job had accused God of being cold and indifferent and even an enemy of Job. However those false claims were bred in a place of deep suffering! How wonderful of a friend is Elihu to help him weed out these bitter roots to help bring Job to a place of humility and worship even in suffering!

📖 Scripture Focus: Job 34

In Job 33, Elihu—the youngest of Job’s companions—steps forward with a message that is both bold and compassionate. Unlike the others, Elihu corrects Job with humility, reminding him of God’s greatness and pointing him back to the truth. In many ways, Elihu foreshadows Christ as he speaks of a mediator who can stand between God and man.

This sermon explores how Elihu becomes a true friend to Job, offering correction with kindness, and how his words echo God’s purpose for suffering in the believer’s life. Through this narrative, we are reminded that even in the darkest valleys, God is shaping us, refining us, and drawing us closer to Him.

Dig deep with us into the story of Job and discover how God uses suffering not as punishment, but as preparation—for faith, growth, and hope in His plan.
