Job chapter 12, verse 10,

In His Hand is the life of every living thing

and the breath of all mankind.

Now, this is part of what I love about the book of Job,

and we'll see it most clearly when you get to God's response to Job at the end of this book.

And it's just a powerful revelation of who God is.

But along the way, much like we were praying according to in Job 11,

we see these glorious pictures of who God is

and his greatness and its power.

And here in verse 10 of Job chapter 12

and his sustaining power in our lives,

in his hand, is the life of every living thing.

Like, just think about it. Every living thing.

Not just even people. So you have seven plus billion people in the world.

Not just people. Every living thing, every animal, every insect,

every little living thing, every fish, every bird,

like they all are in his hand and the breath of all mankind everything just think of all the living things

in the world right now that are at this moment sustained by God he's holding them up he's holding you up

me up he holds our breath in his hand.

Your breath, that's coming from God.

That's coming from God.
