God’s hand will destroy your enemies. In Exodus 3:20, God said, “I will stretch out my hand and strike Egypt with my mighty wonders.” The children of Israel had been under captivity for many years and the enemy that held them captive refused to allow them to go.
The hand of God will help you to control your destiny and will ensure your deliverance. Psalm 31:15 says “My times are in your hands, deliver me from the hands of my enemies.”
It is the hand of God that provides for you. Psalm 145:16 says: “Thou openest Thy hand and satisfy the desire of every living things.” If you are having difficulty with life, it might be because the hand of God is not upon you.
The hand of God will lead you, direct you and show you where you should go. Psalm 139:10 tells us that “even there shall thy hand lead me; and thy right hand shall hold me”. From time to time, when you are going through difficult situations and circumstances; when you allow the hand of God to lead you, you will get to where you are going.
It is the hand of God that keeps you secure. John 10:27-30 says, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.”
The hand of God makes Him to remember you. Isaiah 49:16 says “Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.” The Bible says your name is written on the palm of God’s hands, and therefore it makes God to remember you.
It is the hand of God that gives you pleasure according to the will of God. The Bible says, “In Thy presence is fullness of joy and at your right hand are pleasures forever more.” It means that when you do not have God’s hands around you, it is unlikely that you will have any kind of pleasure. Also, you will find in the Bible that mercy is in God’s hands. In 2 Samuel 24:14, David told God, “Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, for His mercies are great.” When you are in a difficulty, it is the hand of God that you run into. David had committed a crime, God had become angry with him and God came to David and said: choose three things; either the pestilence destroys you, I put you in the hands of your enemies or let me deal with you myself. And David told God, “Let me fall into the hands of God because His mercies are great.”
How to attract the hands of God
When you build God’s house. If you are working for God, God has a duty to help you.
When you have touched God in prayer. When you have touched God in the place of prayer, the Bible says that God will make His hands to be upon you. 1 Kings 18:41-46… When you are willing for God to lead you, God’s hands will be upon you. Genesis 12:1-3 tells us that the reason Abraham prospered was that he was willing to be led by God.
If you are willing to make an agreement with God, His hands will be upon you. In Genesis 28, when Jacob was running away from Esau (running away from his calamity and destruction), he ran into God and had an encounter with God in Bethel. Jacob made a vow and the vow ensured that Jacob was preserved.
If you avoid sin, God’s hands will be upon you. Isaiah 59:1 says, “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear”, but your iniquity have separated you from your God. If you are in sin, God’s hands will not be upon you: sin is like an insulator; it prevents God from being able to touch you.
