DAILY?READINGS: Leviticus 1; Psalms 96-98; Acts 24:24 to 25:12
I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10
None of us want to stumble. None of us want to be defeated. God’s hand is the only reliable support when we are fearful of falling or failing. It is the hand which flung the stars into space and keeps heaven and earth in orbit. His right hand is the symbol of power and skill. We are weak, but God’s upholding hand is omnipotent. Even the Devil cannot overpower us. We may fail, but we will never fall with His right hand upholding us. God is faithful to His promises, to His Son and to His own. There is no room for gloom with such security! —Milton Haack
Rejoice, ye saints! The time draws near,
When Christ will in the clouds appear,
And for His people call. —E. F. Miller
