God is waiting for and looking for

A Man

to meet the needs of this hour

Job

Job 1:1: There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.

And...

:6: Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

 7And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.



 8And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?



 9Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?



 10Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.



 11But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.



 12And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

Job 2:2:And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

 3And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause.



 4And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life.



 5But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face.



 6And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.



 7So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown.

Job 42:10:And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

And...

:12: So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.

 13He had also seven sons and three daughters.



 14And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.



 15And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.



 16After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.



Noah



Gen. 6:8: But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

II Peter 2:5: And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

Ez. 22:30: And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.

Jerm. 5:1: Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.

David

Acts 13:22: (refers to Saul) And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

Luke 9:23: And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

1. Leave self behind
2. He must say no to self

John The Baptist

John 1:6: There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.



 7The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.



 8He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.



And...



:19: And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?



 20And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.



 21And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.



 22Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?



 23He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.



Mt. 11:2: Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples,



 3And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?



 4Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see:



 5The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.






God Found That Man In Paul



Acts 9:15: But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

1. My chosen instrument
2. The means I have chosen

Eph.2:20: And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Firmly beneath you is the foundation

of the apostles, prophets, Jesus Christ, himself

being The Cornerstone

Eph. 4:11: And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

 12For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:



 13Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:



Eph. 5:26: That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
 27That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

1. Present it to Himself
2. In stainless Glory
3. In all her beauty
4. As something wonderful, with no stain, no wrinkle, no such disfigurements,
   faultless, and perfect.

Eph. 2:15:Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;

 16And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
