Perfect!

Job 1:8 "And the Lord said unto Satan,Hast thou considered my servant Job,that there is none like him in the earth,a perfect and an upright man,one that feareth God, and escheweth evil"?

Here we have Job, he was a servant of God,and a righteous man in God's eyes.In fact God said he was perfect.Now let us understand there is a difference between human perfection and devine perfection. God called Job perfect;Job was perfect because Job made God his choice.With all that happened to Job, with all he lost, and suffered he simply said "Thou you slay me I will trust you". Through all that Job endured he never faltered in his love for God,and thus his three friends were lead to salvation.

Jesus Christ was perfect. He was the perfect sacrifice for an imperfect people.His perfection allow us to become the righteousness of God.With all that Jesus went through,with all he endured,the trials, tribulations, the suffering and His death, He never strayed from the will of His Father.In the garden as he contenplated being separated from His Father, he said "not my will, but thine will be done".Jesus obeyed the will of His Father even though he knew many would not believe,and many would not follow. We too, must be dedicated servants for the Lord.The enemy will attack, trials will come, you will be talked about,mistreated,picked out to be picked on,but through it all we cannot let the actions and attitude of others change who and whose we are.But let who and whose you are change the attitude and actions of others as we lead them to the salvation of the Lord.

God's word, tells us to "be ye perfect as our Father in heaven is perfect".The enemy will attack, but God knows we are strong enough to withstand anything the enemy throws at us.He gave us Jesus the Christ who overcame the world, "and greater is He that is in me ,then he that is in the world".Let us surrender our all to Christ and walk the perfection of our savior,that we to might be perfect in God's eyes, and lead a lost soul to be saved.
