FAITH CAPSULE: The hand of God is more than capable to relocate you ahead of your adversaries.

Exodus 3:13-22

Psalmist describes the hand of God, “For the Lord is the great God, and the great King above all gods. In His hand are the deep places of the earth; the heights of the hills are His also.The sea is His, for He made it; and His hands formed the dry land.” (Psalm 95:3-5) What do you desire in this month of the “miracle of the third day”? If there is anything to desire, it should be for the hand of God. The hand of God is mighty in deliverance and restoration. It takes only the hand of God for the Israelites to come out the bondage of over four hundred years. It does not matter what has kept you grounded for years if you will desire for God’s hand intervention, breakthrough miracle will answer for you in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. God that knows the end from the beginning knew that words would not be enough for Moses to get Pharaoh committed to the deliverance of over four hundred years.  It is written in Exodus 3:19-20, “But I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not even by a mighty hand. So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst; and after that he will let you go.” Deliverance was manifested through the hand of God. Without the hand of God in operation, it would have been a no go for the children of Israel.
Elijah needed the hand of God to run ahead his adversary. The book of 1Kings 18:46 documented, “Then the hand of the LORD came upon Elijah; and he girded up his loins and ran ahead of Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.” Elijah did not have to be behind but ahead. As a result of the Lord’s hand, Elijah moved from behind to being ahead of the king Ahab who was riding on the chariot. Whatever challenge has been put in place to keep you behind, the hand of God is more than capable to relocate you ahead of your adversaries.
Discouragement will fail where the hand of God is place. Ezra needed to overcome discouragement when he stated, “…so I was encouraged, as the hand of the LORD my God was upon me; and I gathered leading men of Israel to go up with me” (Ezra 7:28) Ask for the hand of God constantly in every area of living life. It is the same hand of God that Nehemiah testified as the reason for getting the project of reconstruction through in Jerusalem. It is written in Nehemiah 2:18, “And I told them of the hand of my God which had been upon me…” Allow His hand to be your desire.
 
Pray for today: Ask God to cause His hand to reign and rule in your life.
