HELD SECURELY BY THE LORD!
Isaiah 41:10 – Devotional
Isaiah 41:10
“Fear not, for I am with you. Do not be discouraged for I am your God – – I will hold you securely in My righteous right hand.”
The comic strip character, Snoopy, was always trying to write the great American novel. As he pecked away on his typewriter, he imagined himself to be a world-famous author. His opening line never changed: It was a dark and stormy night.
I recall a dark night that was not stormy as far as the weather was concerned, but stormy with danger and injury. Our car had over-turned while being towed behind a wrecker. Our son was badly injured and the tow truck driver took my wife and three kids to the hospital, leaving me behind with our wrecked automobile.
In the darkness I only had a flashlight to warn on-coming traffic that they were approaching an accident scene. It was just a short time later when two shady looking characters stopped — not to assist me, but to help themselves. As they circled around the damaged vehicle, I overheard one say that there was nothing of value to them. They went back to their car and quickly drove off into the night.
I am convinced that the Lord was holding me securely on that dark and potentially stormy night. He has always been there when I needed Him. Thank you Lord!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
