Today’s Scripture…
Isaiah 41:10
10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Thoughts…
According to the NIV Word Study Bible, the right is considered culturally to be stronger and of greater prestige than the left. To be seated on the right side of a ruler is a greater position than on the left side. God is upholding you with He RIGHT hand.
You are loved so much He is reserving His right hand to help you. You are not some second rate citizen. You are not an afterthought. He is saving His best for you. You are not getting His leftovers.
Are you returning the same to Him? Is He an afterthought in your day? Do you pray only when you need something? Do you give Him your best? Meditate long and hard on these answers today. Ask God to show you where you are upholding Him with your left hand.
By the way, I am saying “Ouch!” too.
Prayer…
Lord, I want to give you my best. Show me today where I am not upholding you with my right hand.
