FAITH CAPSULE: The hand of God shall rest over me.
Ezra 7
To trust in God for His intervention is not enough to gain His blessing.
However, to trust and hope is what it takes to gain the blessing of God.
Jeremiah 17:7 confirms, “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord.”
In the new season, will you trust and hope in the hand of God to answer for you?
In the hand of God, there is power to answer all challenges.
Why not give regard to the hand of God to engage His hand for deliverance and preservation?
Consider that, entering a new season is to open the mind, asking for the hand of God, which is not short to locate you.
Isaiah 59:1 identifies the hand of God, stating, “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; Nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear.”
The character of His hand that is not short is that God hears the calling for Him.
It is evidence that He is God who waits continually for those who wait on Him.
Isaiah 64:4 records, “For since the beginning of the world Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, Nor has the eye seen any God besides You, Who acts for the one who waits for Him.”
Imagine God waits to act for those who wait on Him.
One who waits on God will not miss the intervention of the hand of God, on whatever the issue presents.
Know that God hears, ask that the hand of God will bring you out of every area of life that is holding you down, which you know and do not know.
There is deliverance in the hand of God.
If the hand of God can answer for the deliverance of the Israelites after four years, He will not fail to answer those who wait on Him.
Moses reminded the Israelites about the hand of God, stating, “And remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm…” (Deuteronomy 5:15)
In challenges that seem to have no end, where are you looking to get deliverance?
If one has yet to look up to God, there is a need to gain an understanding of what it means to look up to God.
One that sets one eye on God and the other eye on the world for the intervention to challenges is bound to lose and not get from God.
It was the mighty and outstretched hand that He brought the children of Israel from the slavery of over four hundred years.
Compare your challenges to the slavery bondage of Israel that came out of bondage. Know that a call on the hand of God for your deliverance will gain the hand of God.
Prayer for today: Ask against any mark attempting to bring you down physically or spiritually.
