In this sermon on Job 18–19, Stephen Davey highlights Job’s remarkable declaration of faith in the depths of despair: “I know that my Redeemer lives.” While abandoned, suffering, and misunderstood, Job affirms five realities of resilient faith—certainty, personal possession, a living foundation, anticipation of Christ’s return, and the expectation of seeing God. Stephen Davey connects Job’s words to the transforming power of sacred music, tracing their influence on George Frideric Handel as he composed The Messiah during his own season of hardship. The message reminds believers that worship prepares us for eternity and that even in life’s darkest valleys, we can confidently declare faith in our living Redeemer.
