This is it! The moment we’ve all been waiting for… God finally appears and Job gets all his questions answered and God apologizes for the inconvenience. NOT!!! Actually the sovereign God of the universe appears before Job and helps him understand just how extraordinarily transcendent He truly is. Through dozens of questions, God brings Job to his knees in heartfelt worship as he realizes that God is the only satisfaction we need during hard times.
