INTRO: We have come through an amazing account, an account found in possibly the oldest book in the Bible. In the last two messages we have dealt with the issue of pride. The Lord challenged Job that if he could humble proud and wicked people, then He, God would confess to Job that he could save himself.
In my interpretation of the book, the heart of it is found in 40:8-14 (read). The Lord challenges Job to humble proud people. The Lord then uses two huge animals, behemoth (40:15-24), and leviathan (41:1-34) to give Job an understandable picture of how much energy it takes to humble proud and wicked people. The Lord compares pride to these two huge creatures. Basically, I reduce these sections to this: Job, if you can catch behemoth when he is watching, or if you can catch leviathan with a fishing hook, then you stand a good chance at humbling proud people. And it is here that Job finally comes to the point God has been seeking all along to bring him (read 42:1-6).
