WELCOME TO GOD FOCUS THIS MORNING

THE TITLE FOR TODAY’S EPISODE:  UPHELD BY THE LORD

Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

The word uphold means to sustain, confirm or support. If God upholds us with his hands take a moment and think about it. He will support us with his hand. There is no better support system in the universe than God’s hand.

The word sustain means to support or keep from falling. Like helping someone elderly to walk. It wouldn’t be good for someone who is weak to lean on someone who doesn’t have strength to hold them up.

God confirms who we are; by telling us we are his children. Support can come in all sorts of forms spiritually, physically, financially and emotionally. He has promised to strengthen us and be our support.

Spiritually He has given us His Spirit to be our guide. We should never have fear as long as God is leading. We do not need to see where we are going, we just need to trust that he is leading. He will not steer us wrong. He wants what is best for us.

Eph 3:16-19 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; 17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Physically, he has promised to be our healer. He wants us to walk in health and enjoy the life he has given to us. When the enemy tries to attack us with sickness and disease, we need to look to Jesus, who is our healer.

Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.

Financially, he is Jehovah Jireh our provider. He has promised in his word to be our source. Phil 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Whatever we have need of he will provide. We must learn to trust him.

He has promised to uphold us or prop us up. It is a good thing to know we can lean on him. There is no safer place to be than to lean on Jesus.

Jer 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

Without God on our side, we are without hope, we are merely existing. Sleepwalking through life without joy or any real peace. When we trust in the Lord, we turn the responsibility for our lives over to him. We have peace in knowing he will work things our for our good. We don’t have to worry or second guess what is going on because we can trust in God’s hands to protect, strengthen and guide us ever step of the way.

He will uphold us and give us the support we need.

Until next time,

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS
