-Fifty Five- God's Hand

God’s Hand

Today’s Reading: Psalm 44:3

Focal Verse: Psalm 44:3

For they did not gain possession of the land by their own sword,

Nor did their own arm save them;

But it was Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your countenance,

Because You favored them.

Not only do we not recognize the role God plays in preserving our lives, but many times we do not give Him credit for our successes and victories. At times, we attribute our successes and our material possessions to our own hands. We do have a part to play, but we must also notice the hand of God in our lives. He clears the way. He enables us with abilities. Many times, He has enabled us to succeed where there was no reason we should succeed.

We have not “earned” the hand of God, but He gives it anyway…just because He has favored us.

So next time your paycheck comes, you step into your home, you greet your family – stop and look for the hand of God.

Think of ways you have clearly seen God’s hand in the past. Ask Him to show you where you may have missed it.
