In the Hand of God

Psa 75:1   We give thanks to you, O God; we give thanks, for your name is near. We recount your wondrous deeds.   “At the set time that I appoint I will judge with equity.   When the earth totters, and all its inhabitants, it is I who keep steady its pillars.  I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your honor and power;   do not lift up your honor and power on high, or speak with haughty neck.’”   For not from the east or from the west and not from the wilderness comes lifting up,   but it is God who executes judgment, putting down one and lifting up another.   For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup with foaming wine, well mixed, and he pours out from it, and all the wicked of the earth shall drain it down to the dregs.   But I will declare it forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.   All the honor and power of the wicked I will cut off, but the honor and power of the righteous shall be lifted up.

God is the supreme Ruler of men. Our position or promotion in life is His arrangement, to be held as a sacred trust for humbly serving, honoring, following and obeying Him.  There are high moments in life when we realize how real and near God is. The ground on which we stand is holy. We know that we are safe in the Father’s care. We are to be mindful of the sovereignty of God and trust in Him alone.  We are to live in His presence with heart desire to know and serve Him and His purpose for our life.  Be an encouragement to your brothers and sisters in Christ, and a light to the lost courageously living in and proclaiming the grace, mercy, love and power of God.
