In the Palm of God's Hand - Tuesday Praise & Pray (for others) July 23, 2024
Isaiah 49:16 - See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.
These beautiful words were uttered by God through His prophet hundreds of years ago. But if there is one thing we know about the Lord, it is that He does not change (Malachi 3:6). Yesterday, today, and forever - His word remains the same.
So, just as He committed to the ancient Israelites in the time of Prophet Isaiah, He's making the same promise to you. Just as He covenanted to pay attention to them then He's paying attention to you today. Your life is important to Him. What you think matters to Him. What you experience each day affects Him. When you cry, He is sad. He doesn't want you to experience pain and has given you the wisdom of the Bible to help you avoid such.
When you are elated, He wants to share in your joy and looks forward to you inviting Him into your happiness with your praise, thanksgiving, and worship. When you do that, He can't wait to make you smile again and again, knowing that He will be a part of your rejoicing.
When the storms of life rock your boat, He is a gentleman who waits on you to invite Him in so He can steady things. He also wants you to call on Him even when the sky is blue and the birds are singing. He desires to spend quiet and peaceful times with you too.
God wants you to call Him into every aspect of your life. He wants to walk through every moment with you. Call on Him to be your guide and watch how much He'll do. See how He'll prove to you that there is no aspect of your life He'll ever leave to chance. Let His plans for you go off without a hitch. He's the God who holds you in the palm of His hand for your good and His glory.
(PS: If you aren't convinced of the above, please consider reading the testimonies in the Testimony Thread. Many have accounted for how God stepped into the boat of life with them and turned everything around. God bless you.)
