"They meet with darkness in the daytime and grope in the noonday as in the night"
(Job 5:14)
"Let the day be darkness; let not God regard it from above
Neither let the light shine on it
Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it
Let a cloud dwelt upon it; let the blackness of day terrify it
As for the night, let darkness seize upon it
Let it not be joined unto the days of the year
Let it not come into the numbers of the month"
(Job 5:4-6)
They skulk and stalk for victims
They are blackness without any hope of brightness
Light surrounds them without attacking
Plagued by the raging heartbreak which they self-inflicted, they turn against themselves
They wounded themselves by cursing You while spitting on Your chosen people
The nights with days will straighten their inclinations
Light is love while darkness is hatred
Conceal nothing but reveal everything
Those who escalate in hatred slip into its frenzied decay
"Lo, let the night be solitary; let no joyful voice come there within
Let them curse it that curse the day who are ready therein to praise up the morning
Let the stars of twilight therefore be dark
Let it look for light but have none
Neither let it see the dawning of the day
(Job 3:7-9)
Before I go whence from where I shall not return
Even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death
A land of darkness, as darkness itself, and to the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness"
(Job 10:21-22)
The night consists of hours of secrecy and abominations
They dare not commit these atrocities in daylight
Let the darkness in evildoers consume them before they emit an artificial light
Let it oppress them in their transgressions
They traded their light for luxuries and detestations
Their envious eyes have become accustom to the darkness
Even in death, they declare that they are correct
They are condemned to death by their declarations of independence
"He discovers deep things out of the darkness
And brings them out to the light the shadow of death"
(Job 12:22)
"They grope in darkness without light
And He makes them stagger like a drunken man"
(Job 12:25)
"They change the night into the day; the light is short because of darkness
If I wait, the grave is my house; I have made my bed in darkness
(Job 17:12-13)
The light shall be darkness in his tabernacle and his candle shall be put out with him
He shall be driven from light into darkness and chased out of the world"
(Job 18:5-6)
Consider all that Jesus has done for you
How can you disclaim him when he is there for you?
They are hippos in rivers
They are alligators in swamps
Their only drive is to dismember and disassemble your faith
They seek you out to speak their loathsome deformities of scriptures
Don't let your prayers be interrupted
Don't let your soul be abducted
"Can he judge through a dark cloud?"
(Job 22:13)
"Because I was not cut off before the darkness
Neither hath he cover the darkness from my face
(Job 23:17)
"Behold, the moon, and it shone not"
(Job 25:5)
"In the darkness, they dig through houses
Which they had marked for themselves in the daytime; they know not light
For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death
I foreknowing them; they aren't the terrors of the shadows of death"
(Job 24:16-17)
No blackness is too dark for Jesus to see through
Jesus is brightness and love will shine through hatred
Jesus will rescue us from the works of the devil if we acknowledge Jesus as the messiah
No creation is greater than its creator
You are not alone because Jesus is with you
In death, there is a world of light, and a world of darkness
You have a choice to either be obsessed with the love of God, or to be preoccupied by the hatred of godlessness
"When his candle shined upon my head
And when by his light, I walked through darkness"
(Job 29:3)
"My bones are pierced in me by the night season
And my sinews take no rest"
(Job 30:17)
"When I looked for good then evil came unto me
And when I waited for light, there came darkness"
(Job 30:26)
Where is the way where light dwell?
And as for darkness, where is the place thereof?
(Job 38:19)
Have the gates of death opened unto thee?
Has though sent the doors of the shadow of death?"
(Job 38:17)
The book of light is entered through submission
It's our mission in life to serve Jesus
We are indestructible but not untouchable to the shadow of death
Jesus has already defeated hatred with love
We must will the extinction of the darkness in our flesh
Darkness and light live in us but only one can prosper
The ways of death leads to dying
The ways of life leads to living
