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…
He’s got the whole world in His hands, but He is upholding you with His right! Yes, that does have significants.
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 (NIV Word Study Bible). Right hands are seen as dominant (sorry my left-handed friends). The point is in literary terms, God is holding you in His strong hand. You are important enough for Him to offer you His best,
For my sports enthusiast, think of it in football terms. That receiver gets the ball and tucks it tightly under his dominant arm. He wants to shield it and protect it from the others. God has got you tucked away ready to take on any defenseman that comes you way and take you right into the end zone.
Prayer…
Thank you Lord for always having me in Your hand! ~Amen
