Right Hand

Yes, it takes eyes of faith to see the right hand of God

But only fools can’t recognize His fingerprints

God’s right hand is mighty

It is mighty to save

This is why it is so important to share your testimonies

Of the fingerprints of God’s power with others

Because in the battle, the clouds of the natural, make it difficult for us

To see His Right Hand striking down our enemies  

Right Hand

Your arm is endued with power;

your hand is strong, your right hand exalted

Psalm 80:13

As a boy, I remember my grandfather rolling

up his sleeve to show me his muscle.

He said watch this and he would flex his muscle.

He told me the muscle was a frog under his

skin and as he flexed the frog would jump.

Now I have grandchildren and I tell

them I have a frog that jumps in my arm.

Young men like to flex their muscles.

The girls like the men with the “big guns”.

The right hand and arm is a symbol of strength.

Over 100 times the Bible mentions

the right arm or right hand.

When the bullies of life flex their muscles, God says…

Isaiah 41:13

For I am the LORD, your God,

who takes hold of your right hand

and says to you, Do not fear;

I will help you.

The Lord makes our right hand powerful.

It was with the right hand that the

Patriarchs blessed their children.

Genesis 48:14

The right is a symbol of authority.

Jesus sits at the right hand of God.

A place of equal authority and power.

You have heard the saying…

 “the right hand man”.

Ephesians 1 tells us…

 …his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, 20 which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

Ephesians 1:19-23

Proof that Christ ascended into heaven and was seated

at the right hand of God is clearly seen in Acts 2,

when from His seat in heaven Jesus sent the Holy Spirit.

From the right hand of God,

Jesus intercedes for us.    

Romans 8:34-35

34 Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died — more than that, who was raised to life — is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship

or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?

This all makes sense of the many Old Testament

prophecies concerning the Messiah subduing His enemies.

Psalm 110:1; 118:16

 

Moses accredits the great things

God did for the people of Israel…

  

"Your right hand, O LORD, was majestic in power.

Your right hand, O LORD, shattered the enemy.

Exodus 15:6

The right hand is a symbol of authority, strength,

power, blessing, sovereignty, righteousness.

 

“Your arm is endued with power;

your hand is strong, your right hand exalted.”

So many times we do not see the strong

right hand of the Lord in our lives.

In those times of great trouble we

cry out like Jesus did on the cross…

“My God, My God why have you forsaken me”

But later we see God was fulfilling His purpose.

Later on we see that what the enemy

meant for harm God meant for good.

 

It is when time has passed, we see

“All things work together for the good”.

 It is later we see the fingerprints of

that right hand all over our situation.

 Yes, it takes eyes of faith to

see the right hand of God.

But only fools can’t recognize His fingerprints.

God’s right hand is mighty.

It is mighty to save.

This is why it is so important to share your testimonies

of the fingerprints of God’s power with others.

Because in the battle, the clouds of the natural,

 make it difficult for us to see His

Right Hand striking down our enemies.

Psalm 89:9-18 NIV

9 You rule over the surging sea;

when its waves mount up, you still them.

with your strong arm you scattered your enemies.

your hand is strong, your right hand exalted.

love and faithfulness go before you.

they exult in your righteousness.
