Scripture Union Daily Guide 24th August 2025 Outline

Job’s sufferings were terrible (Job 6:2-4). He was an ordinary human being at the limits of human endurance (Job 6:12-13). He wished he were dead, but look at his reason for that in Job 6:10! He wanted to die not because his sufferings were too much but rather because he was afraid he might deny God on account of his sufferings. Job knew he had not sinned. God knew he had not sinned. And Satan too knew he had not sinned. His friends, however, did not know. Far from being helpful, therefore, their wrongful words of advice only added to his sorrows (Job 6:21). Thus, he felt obliged to respond to the well-meaning but erroneous counsel from Eliphaz and his other friends. He challenged them to show him what he had done wrong (Job 6:24-26).

We cannot fully understand details of matters that affect us directly, how much less matters that have to do with other people! This is why we need to be extra careful in passing judgment when a brother or sister is in trouble, and we wish to help them. If we are not careful, our well-meaning ignorance can do more harm than good!

Hymn: When I shall fall asleep

1. Some day the sun of life will set,
And I shall fall asleep,
And, leaving all that I hold dear,
Will find the silence deep:
That mystery which, still unsolved,
God and His angels know,
And those who walk the crystal streams
Where heav’nly breezes blow,
Where grief nor sorrow ever come,
Nor trouble’s billows sweep;
Some day the Reaper will appear,
And I shall fall asleep.

2. Some day the cares of life will cease,
And I shall fall asleep,
And, passing from you, I shall see
Afar the golden street,
And sainted forms of those who dwell
Upon the other shore,
Behold the loves ones who from us
Awhile have gone before;
Where soft and cooling pathways lie,
Where none shall ever weep—
Some day the hour for me will come,
And I shall fall asleep.

3. Some day my work will all be done,
And I shall fall asleep,
But O what joy to know that I
Shall wake to never weep!
For where I go we know that God
Has promised perfect rest
And peace for every aching heart,
And every troubled breast;
And love more lasting than our own
He’ll give to me to keep,
When all my burdens are laid down,
And I have gone to sleep.

Closing Prayer
Do you know a child of God who is going through some personal struggles right now? Take time to pray for them.
