You have probably heard the expression;
Leave it in the hands of God
Or
May the hand of God be with you
Or
God holds you in the palm of His hand.
I believe when someone prays over me putting me in
God’s hands, I have received a special blessing. What better place to be than
in the hands of the Lord? His hands; that hold the whole world and all that is
in it!!
I believe I am safe, protected, provided for and
invited into His presence, when His hands are over me. I believe God guides me,
and, shows me the path I should be on as I stay under His directive hand. I
believe He cares for me, lifts me up and takes care of my worries; as I humble
myself in His presence.
In 1 Peter chapter 5 verses 5 to 7 in the Good News
Bible we read this;
(5) In the same way you younger men must submit
yourselves to the older men. And all of you must put on the apron of humility,
to serve one another; for the Scripture says, “God resists the proud, but shows
favour to the humble.”
(6) Humble yourselves, then, under God‘s mighty
hand, so that he will lift you up in his good time.
(7) Leave all your worries with him, because he
cares for you.
I believe God strengthens me keeps me from fear and
helps me, because in Isaiah chapter 41 verse 13 I read:
(13) I am the Lord your God; I strengthen you and
tell you, “Do not be afraid; I will help you.”
For those of us who have accepted Jesus as Lord and
Savior, God’s hand one day will take our hand in His as we enter heaven and we
will see Jesus seated at the right hand of God, a place of honour. What a
glorious day that will be for all of us.
Today as I look over the past year of Covid I’m
reminded of the many hands it takes to continue our ministry and all the many
people who give their time, talent and treasure to keep the word of God afresh
in the minds of others. The Board of Directors made a heart wrenching decision
a year ago to cease in person services for the safety and protection of
everyone who came to church. They also wanted to obey the government rules,
decisions and suggestions as to how to navigate through COVID-19 as this was
totally new to all of us. A year later, all of us are still navigating and
believing that one day God will open the doors and we will all join once again
in fellowship with everyone, hearing and learning the word, and praising His
name for the safety we received under His hand of protection. When all restrictions are lifted we shall all
gather in complete safety. We will join hands in wonderful confidence and raise
our hands in praise to Him, who is higher than any other.
Today I send thanks to all those who keep us in
prayer, your hands lifted to the Father on behalf of our ministry. Thank you!!
We as a ministry appreciate your love, prayers and patience as we await our
joining together again in person.
To those who continue to support us, your giving to
our ministry has been greatly appreciated. When we place your giving into the
hands of those in need, rest assured those people are very thankful for the
help they receive. When they pray, hands open before the Lord, God brings the
blessing they need, through your hands and the offerings you give. Your gifts
bless those in need. Praise be to God!! We are the hands of Jesus in these
situations. We have a saying here at Master’s Hand Ministry:
Little as much when God is in it.
This is so true. All amounts, small and large, come
together for the greater need of those who are waiting for an answer to prayer.
So thank you for your giving, may God bless you always.
Without the help and direction of many; our services
would not be available on social media. It takes many hands to make light work.
We all work together, inputting what God gives us to share and believe His word
is reaching farther than ever before. Only God can reach out when it seems as
if we have to shut down. His ways are so much greater than ours. We are
grateful for His hand of direction in us, through us, and over this ministry.
We lift our hands in prayer, we give thanks to God
who enables us to do as He asks, who entrusts us with the mission to share the
gospel, who blesses us so we can bless others, and, in all of this, we see His
Mighty Hand at work. We are on the winning team!!!
In closing today may I suggest that you leave
everything in God’s hands, He will direct the outcome, and may God‘s hand be
with each one of us. Let us all remember, He holds us in the palm of His
Almighty Hand.
Let us close our hands in prayer and say, Thank you
Lord. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Let’s lift a prayer everyday, hence the seven
praying hands you see here. Just a
little reminder😉
Have a wonderful day in the plans God has for you today.
