“Let Go and Look Up!”
 
look up for he is your god
 
 
by Dona Hake
 
 
Today I want to exhort you to keep looking up, let go of anxiety if you have any for He is your God!  Today is a new day, and tomorrow is another day.   Let us meet each day with a knowing that every mercy and strength we need is there because that is what our Lord desires to bless us with.  He is all about going before us and providing all that we need to do all that He is requiring of us.
 
 
If you fear what is ahead of you, know that He knows all that you will face in your day.  Trust Him, do not be anxious for He is your God.  Please ponder and be blessed with the scripture I have for you today.
 
 
Isaiah 41:10
King James Version 

“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 significance of His right hand being mentioned is because it represents strength and skill. When we feel tempted to be fearful or weary in our hearts,  He will lift us up and carry us with His strength. We can rest in His arms knowing that He will hold us tightly until life’s storms are  over. There are many times in my life that I can testify  that do not know how I would have made it apart from Him carrying me.  I thank Him today for His strong right arm that upheld me in my troubles!   I praise God that the strength of His right hand will always be there to sustain me. 

 
 
 
As you begin a brand new day,  or maybe you are reading this at the end of a long day, I encourage to keep close to your heart that you do not walk alone.   In those times of needing direction, seek Him and He will show you the way.   In those times that fear tries to grip your heart, look up and remind your soul that you are resting in His arms. He promises to uphold you and keep you in all of your ways.
