Let Go! Acquaint With God!

                                           Job 22:21
                "Acquaint now thyself with him and be at peace:
                           thereby good shall come unto thee."

        Eliphaz opens the discussion with a speech altogether too hard and cruel. He begins with Job’s  misdeeds. The fundamental position with Eliphaz was the absolute, even-handed justice of God. God at least was unimpeachable; and therefore, however Job might affirm the contrary, he must have deserved the chastisement which had befallen him.
         Evil men are always anxious to think that God does not notice them. This was, says Eliphaz, the policy of those who were destroyed by the Flood. They attempted to build society on atheistic lines, though he filled their houses with good things. The inference, of course, was that Job had been guilty of the same offense. Eliphaz concludes with a gestures of a holy life; To be reconciled to God, to obey His Word, to put away iniquity and trust in earthly riches, "are the conditions of blessedness." We shall gain more than we lose, We shall inherit the confidence and joy of His presence,  Our prayers will be answered; we shall walk “in the light;” and our ministry to others will be full of helpfulness. Let us, then, acquaint ourselves with God and be at peace!
        Amen!!
