Job 2:1 says, Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.  Once again, we might wonder why Satan was allowed to be in the midst of those present with God, but we must remember that until the final judgment that he is allowed to roam freely.  Verse two adds, And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.  This is a repeating of the question asked in chapter one and was not asked because God did not know where Satan had been and what he had been doing.  It was an opportunity for the great Deceiver to tell the truth.  Still, Satan only told a partial truth.  He did not say he had been attempting to destroy people's faith in God. Verse three continues, 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? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause. God repeated His commending of Job, but with the added statement that Job remained faithful even though Satan had destroyed everything Job had. We can only hope that we will have the same type faith when adversity comes into our lives.  Verse four states, And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.  Satan was not silenced by Job's faith, nor did he admit that he was wrong about Job.  We must realize that Satan will never give up on trying to defeat or discredit Christians.  We know that if we truly accept Christ as Savior and Lord that God seals us as His forever, so the best that Satan can hope for is to cause our faith to waver.  Verse five adds, But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.  Satan told God that even though Job had lost everything else, he still had his health.  Satan told God if God took away Job's health that Job would curse God.  Verse six continues, And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.  God did not say that He would do what Satan told Him to do, but instead said He would allow Satan to take away Job's health, but not his life.  I believe we can take comfort in the fact that Satan can never take away our everlasting life.  Even if we lose everything else, we are God's forever if we have accepted Christ as our Savior and Lord.  Verse seven concludes, So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.  Satan was again in a hurry to prove that Job would turn away from God if he lost his health.  Sometimes physical pain can cause us to do or say things that we wouldn't normally do, but we can never let it cause us to question God.  God is with us through the pain.  We will see that Job remained true to his faith in God.
