FAITH CAPSULE: Desiring is to seek God to experience the power in His open hand.
Luke 5:12-26
God is so good and always in position for all man that will ask to receive, to seek Him and knock to receive from His opening. Asking, seeking and knocking demands consistent when desiring from God. Without doubt, when we desire by meditating day and night encountering the presence of God becomes undeniable. If there is any to desire from God, it should be His hand. It is knowledge to desire more of God’s hand because the power of God is in His hand. Power belongs to God in the hand of God. With knowledge, the Psalmist buttressed, “You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.” (Psalm 145:16)
Are you a true believer? King David buttressed the identities of God that answers for man, “The Lord is righteous in all His ways, gracious in all His works. The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth. He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them. The Lord preserved all who love Him, but all the wicked He will destroy.” (Psalm 145:17-20) Are you a true believer? Are you a doer of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves? (James 1:22) Take a position of asking, seeking, and knocking for the open hand of God. There is power in the hand of God to satisfy the desire of every living thing.
What is it about the hand of God?
Deliverance from the enemy and to prevail in the journey of life is power in the open hand of God. It was the hand of God that brought the children of Israel from slavery of over four hundred years (Deuteronomy 5:15).
Mockery to miracle is in the hand of God. The bible recorded in Luke 5:12-13, “And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him.”” Jesus’ hand cleansed mockery of the leprosy. Leprosy without any doubt is an agent of mockery. Is there any need for healing from sickness with experience of mockery that is denying you from taking a position of promotion? Ask, seek and knock for His hand that is opened for a true believer.
Meditate for His hand in this wicked world. Isaiah 59:1 testified about the hand of God, “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save…” His hand is not short to deliver if there is devote to seek for His open hand.
