400. God the All-Wise<\/p>\n
As Seen in Job_36:13 to Job_37:13<\/p>\n
No one who believes in God can doubt His wisdom. It is stamped\u2014like the water-marks upon a Bank of England note\u2014upon everything around us. The birds with their song speak forth the praise of wisdom; the cattle with their lowing and the sheep with their bleating tell out the fact; the flowers with their variegated beauty and sweet scent re-echo the same; the earth with its treasures, the sea with its supply, and the Heavens with their glory point out the wisdom of God.<\/p>\n
There are many things that Elihu speaks of that point as so many sign-posts to the wisdom of God.<\/p>\n
1. The dew, like pearls hanging upon the blades of grass\u2014Job_36:27.<\/p>\n
2. The rain, like Rebecca supplying Eliezer, ministering to the thirsty earth\u2014Job_36:27.<\/p>\n
3. The clouds, like a huge filter, purifying the vapour\u2014Job_36:28.<\/p>\n
4. The light, like a messenger of good news, bringing joy and gladness, and like a great artist giving beauty and colour\u2014Job_36:30.<\/p>\n
5. The sea, with its teeming life and its abundant supply for man like a huge larder, where he can go and be supplied\u2014Job_36:29, Job_36:30.<\/p>\n
6. The darkness, like an extinguisher to put out the light, so that man is like a blind man without the help of God\u2014Job_36:32.<\/p>\n
7. The lightning, with its vivid glare, like the gleam of a glittering sword uplifted to strike\u2014Job_37:3.<\/p>\n
8. The thunder, with its boom, as if the floor of Heaven was cracking\u2014Job_37:4.<\/p>\n
9. The snow, like a mantle to keep the young shoots warm\u2014Job_37:5.<\/p>\n
10. The wind, like affliction, takes away the rotten branches and strengthens the roots of the trees\u2014Job_37:9.<\/p>\n
11. The cold, like trial, purifies and preserves\u2014Job_37:9.<\/p>\n
