The Hands that Never Make Mistakes

“If a Christian carves for himself,

he’ll cut his own fingers.” – a Puritan proverb

Our God has hands better than our own to trust.

Hands that are . . .

· Holding us up.

“Your right hand upholds me.” (Psalm 63:7)

· Powerful.

“. . . nor did their own arm save them; but it was Your right hand.” (Psalm 44:3)

· Open and Good.

“You open Your hand, they are filled with good.” (Psalm 104:28)

· Guiding and Protecting.

“We are . . . the sheep of His hand.” (Psalm 95:7)

· Victorious.

“His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory.” (Psalm 98:1)

· Trustworthy.

“My times are in Your hand.” (Psalm 31:15)

· Compassionate and Healing.

“Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him . . . immediately the leprosy left him.” (Mark 1:41)

· Pierced for us.

“They pierced My hands and My feet.” (Psalm 22:16)

· and Sovereign.

“The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand.” (John 3:35)

These are the Hands that never make mistakes.

knowledge

You can know the word of God, and still not know the God of the word.

Faith 

'Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God' (Rom. 10:17). That is whence faith comes. It is not for me to sit down and wait for faith to come stealing over me with a strong sensation, but is for me to take God at His Word.
