Focus on God’s Goodness-Righteous Right Hand

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Focus on God’s Goodness is found in Isaiah 41:10.

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

Sometimes God’s hand is mentioned in the Bible to demonstrate His guidance in our lives. Sometimes, it is mentioned to show His creativity. Sometimes, it reflects His generosity. Often, it is mentioned to show His power and might. The hand of God is our source of strength when we rely on His grace. The cross is evidence of His mighty hand to save us from our sins.

We are blessed to be in a place where God’s hand guides us, provides for us, moves us, and helps us to live fruitful lives for His glory. The hand of God shows how much we need His grace to save us and sustain us.

The righteous hand of God on our lives reveals the goodness of God and is a reason to give thanks in the Year of Gratitude.
