Job 14:14-16, and what it means to all People!!  By Anthony Joseph Hopkins August 12, 2021

       Job 14:14-16 says If a man dies he shall live again?  All the days of my hard service I will wait until my change comes.  You shall call, and I will answer You: You shall desire the work of Your hands.  For now, You number my steps, but do not watch over my sin.  This is a parable by Job.  He exclaims that if a man dies, he shall live again.  This means when we die, we shall live again because our destination will either be heaven or hell.  All the days of my hard service means as long as we are working hard on earth until the rapture comes.  This is not very easy to bear.

 This is simply because our fate is determined by our own actions.  I want to say that I feel good because God has sealed my fate for me a very long time ago.  God shall desire the work of my own hands.  This means that God would like for me to work for my money.  The labor itself is intensive.  God will speak to me, and I shall answer Him.  This means that God is speaking to me in a way that only I can hear it. 

Next, I want to inform all of you that I still have a long way to go when it comes to my sense of work.  I am a Writer.  I am still a College Student.  I am still in the prime of my life.  I am only 56 years old.  I am still a young man.

 I want to say that my life has not been easy.  I have literally bumped my head too many times.  You number my steps, but not watch over my sin.  This means that God is giving all of us a choice. Further, all of my sins that I have accumulated are from making bad decisions.  I realize that God would like for all of us to share the Gospel with everyone.

 I might be young, but I have a lot of physical problems to contend with.  God is speaking to me on a daily basis.  I pray for people every single day of the week.  I know that my steps had almost slipped into the Pit.  This means that in my mind, I have stepped into a sinful Pit.  I know that my actions and behavior in the past has sealed my fate.  Only God has decided the place for me in advance. 

Finally, I cannot say whether or not I am going to heaven or hell.  I can only say that based on my actions from my past, it has sealed my fate.  I am a Born-Again Christian.  It is that my past consisted of some things that only God can forgive me.  I have tried to receive forgiveness from man, and I have been rejected.  My steps are counted every single day by God.  God also knows how many steps that I am going to walk each day of the week.

 God knows exactly how long I am going to live in advance.  He even knows the plans that He has for me in advance.  I am ready to do God’s work.  I am ready to serve Him.  I am ready to become a worker for God.  I write essays because it helps me cope better with a mental illness.  God Bless You All!!  May God be with all of you.  I love you all very much.
