Job 23
Job seems happy, hopefull and not in much agony, hopeful that there is purpose to his suffering (But he knows the way that I take; when he has tried me , I shall come out as gold)
Similarly (verse10-12) Job was beginning to understand the test , verse says ‘he tests me’ and Job is like gold ..refined until its pure (the fire burns away the unwanted metals)
In all his test , he will trust GOD
Towards the end , he tends to worry about future ,as he began to understand test but couldn’t gage the future and says that , ‘ he will be silent even if he cannot see anything (trust God for something good- seeing the light at the end of the Tunnel)
Job says, "If only I knew where to find him; if only I could go to his dwelling!" and I just think it's so awesome how we can now boldly go before God anytime! (Hebrews 10:19-22)
What a contrast to the old covenant, how only the high priest could enter the Holy of Holies only once a year and he had to bring blood! (Hebrews 9:7). Praise God for our new covenant
Job goes on to say he wishes he can plead his case before God so God can see he's been faithful.
