The God Who Created Leviathan is your Loving Father
“His sneezing flashes out light. His eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. Out of his mouth go burning torches. Sparks of fire leap out. Out of his nostrils a smoke goes, as of a boiling pot over a fire of reeds. His breath kindles coals. A flame goes out of his mouth.” (Job 41:18-21 WEB)
There is a fearsome sea creature which God made, called “Leviathan”. It lives in the depths of the sea and breathes fire out of its mouth, like a dragon.
When Job spoke unwisely against God, God mentioned the Leviathan and told Job how powerful this creature is.
““Can you draw out Leviathan with a hook, Or snare his tongue with a line which you lower? Can you put a reed through his nose, Or pierce his jaw with a hook? Will he make many supplications to you? Will he speak softly to you? Will he make a covenant with you? Will you take him as a servant forever? Will you play with him as with a bird, Or will you leash him for your maidens? Will your companions make a banquet of him? Will they apportion him among the merchants? Can you fill his skin with harpoons, Or his head with fishing spears? Lay your hand on him; Remember the battle— Never do it again! Indeed, any hope of overcoming him is false; Shall one not be overwhelmed at the sight of him? No one is so fierce that he would dare stir him up. Who then is able to stand against Me? Who has preceded Me, that I should pay him? Everything under heaven is Mine.” (Job 41:1-11 NKJV)
It is a creature that no man can defeat. If no one can defeat this fire-breathing sea serpent, then who can hope to stand against the God who created Leviathan?
Meditate on that for a moment, and consider the awesome might of your God. Everything under Heaven is His.
Read the whole of Job 38 if you want to feel utterly small and unknowledgeable. Every question that God challenged Job with is unanswerable for us. We simply don’t have the answers and neither is it possible to obtain them unless God shows us.
“Then Yahweh answered Job out of the whirlwind, “Who is this who darkens counsel by words without knowledge? Brace yourself like a man, for I will question you, then you answer me! “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if you have understanding. Who determined its measures, if you know? Or who stretched the line on it? Whereupon were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone, when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? “Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it broke out of the womb, when I made clouds its garment, and wrapped it in thick darkness, marked out for it my bound, set bars and doors, and said, ‘Here you may come, but no further. Here your proud waves shall be stayed?’” (Job 38:1-11 WEB)
This same omniscient, omnipotent, sovereign God has become your loving Father. Jesus showed us His heart of grace towards us through His parable of the prodigal son:
““He said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours.” (Luke 15:31 WEB)
God said to Job that everything under Heaven is His. He owns Heaven and earth. And to us who have been redeemed by Jesus’ blood, He says all that He has is ours.
Wow! Isn’t that an amazing truth to pause and meditate on? Everything that belongs to Abba God also belongs to you. You shall not lack any good thing. If you are in danger, the God who created Leviathan is your mighty Defender. That’s how generous, gracious, merciful and good your God is!
The parable of the prodigal son is beautiful, but there are also other parables. You can understand every parable and every miracle of Jesus Christ through the proper lens of Grace: https://bit.ly/understandeveryparable
