Job 16:11 says, God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.  Job was feeling that if God was not directly behind his suffering that God had at best turned him over to the ungodly and wicked.  I believe that we could say that this was true, but not for the reasons that Job may have understood.  I believe that Job was saying that God had done this because He felt that Job was guilty of some great sin and was punishing Job.  We need to understand that as followers of Christ that if we are suffering in life and we are living for God as faithfully as we can that God is not going to cause the suffering, but He may allow the suffering to come.  We can never look at our relationship with God from our physical or material standing in the world.  Verse twelve adds, I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.  Job said that when he was at ease, his world was destroyed.  He had lost his wealth, his friends, his family and his health.  These were all blessings from God, and Job held God directly responsible for his lose of them.  When we, as followers of Christ become too at ease in the world, it is quite possible that our world can be shaken apart, but we need to make sure that we never become angry at God because of it.  Job felt that God was treating him unfairly, but we can be sure that God will never be unfair in His relationship with anyone, especially those His followers.  Verse thirteen continues, His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.  I believe that Job felt that God had in effect placed him in a place where everything and everyone seemed to be against him.  If we were to find ourselves in the same situation as Job, we might feel just as defeated as Job did.  Verse fourteen states, He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant.  Job felt that God was continually punishing him and that he was helpless before God.  Though we are certainly helpless before God, once we accept Christ as our Savior and Lord, we can be just as certain that God is never going to set out to destroy us.  If trouble comes into our lives, we need to remain even more faithful to God.  Verse fifteen adds, I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.  I believe that Job was saying that he had repented and humbled himself before the world and God.  Even though Job knew he had done nothing to deserve what he saw as punishment from God, he did not stand in self-pride and defy God.  We should always be willing be the same way in our relationship to God.  In good times or bad, we need to humbly submit to God.  Verse sixteen continues, My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;  Job was truly heartbroken over his condition, because he felt separated from God.  I am sure the physical pain was great, but the spiritual pain was greater.  Verse seventeen says, Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.  Job said that his repentance and tears were not because he had done any injustice, but because he still realized his position in relationship to God.  Verse eighteen adds, O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.  I believe that Job was basically saying that nothing in the earth could point to injustice on his part.  He might never be seen as guiltless in this life, but that wasn't where his hope was.  Verse nineteen continues, Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.  Job knew that his ultimate judgment was not in this world and the things of this world, but in heaven, where he knew he had a witness to the fact that he had been true to his faith in God.  We as followers of Christ know that He is our witness in heaven, and that the judgment of this world does not matter.  Verse twenty states, My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.  We, like Job, may be scorned by our friends, but our repentant hearts must always cry out to God.  Verse twenty-one adds, O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!  We know that we have an Advocate with God if we have accepted Christ as our Savior and Lord.  Job was looking ahead to the coming of that Advocate, but we know that He has already come, and we can put our faith in Him.  Verse twenty-two continues, When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.  Job knew that his time on this earth was limited and that when he died he would never return again.  We do not come back as something or someone else.  When the body dies, the spirit returns to God forever.  We just need to realize that it doesn't matter if we have accepted Christ or not, the soul lives on.  The souls of the saved and the sinner will go to be judged by God.
