I WILL UPHOLD YOU


Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV) 10 ..., I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'
      We are in the habit of falling for one thing or another, many things will motivate us, exercise, a book, movies, even another person, but seldom do we maintain our resolve. Fear will motivate, but when that is diminished, so goes our persistence. Where is our resolve, I am so glad you asked.
       Dependence on the flesh is a losing proposition, the body must be fed to maintain, we are in need of a continuous source of fuel and rest. We make resolutions and often they are just wishful thinking, the Creator of heaven and earth does not just promise, He forms a contract (covenant) and He follows through.
       The Word of God is just as sure as the gravity that holds us down, His presence is as the presence of air and the green scenery, He alone sustains the sun, causes the moon to reflect, and keeps all things in their place. The stars are where they were put from the beginning, as is the presence of man, He has a plan, He knows what we need and He strongly says, "I will hold you up with My righteousness in just My right hand." His contract with the servant of God, is to hold him and keep Him, to protect him, and guard him, nothing can remove the servant from the Creators presence. Romans 8:37-39 Then let us honestly trust Him with everything, the Father says, "I will never leave you or forsake you," Deuteronomy 13:6 that means we cannot be lost if He has our heart. Wow, God can not lose what He created, don't you want that security today, trust Jesus with all your heart.
Heavenly Father, we lose everything even the sight of where we have been, help us to remember, when we trust You there is no need to fear, for all things belong to You. Help me to look to You and no other. Amen.
