The Hands of God

“And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.” Mark 10:13

Denial – Spirit does not have physical hands.

Affirmation – My hands are the hands of God.

There is a Divine Purpose for your life and your hands help you fulfill that purpose. Your hands are gifts from God and your touch is a blessing to the universe. God designed your hands in such a way that each hand has five fingers. Your fingers work together to show you the importance of collaboration and connection with others.  Each finger on each hand has a unique set of prints. Your fingerprints illustrate your diversity and all the aspects of yourself that come together to make you who you are. 

A big part of the ministry of Jesus, our Wayshower, was touch (John 5:15-21).  He touched people and they were blessed. People touched him and they were healed. He realized that the power of God was in his very fingertips. Jesus was also aware of people’s need to touch him to help them to connect with their own Christ consciousness. 

You have the same power in your hands to heal and bless yourself and others. Follow your internal guidance and be willing to touch people in appropriate ways. Sometimes the initiation of touch may come from the other person and sometimes the Holy Spirit may lead you to ask a person, “Can I give you a hug?” Even in the times where you may not desire to touch or to be touched, align your soul with your spirit by reminding yourself that your hands are the hands of God.

  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God. Why am I having this test, this trial, this tribulation? So God can get the glory. Why am I experiencing this persecution, this headache, this pain? So, God can get the glory. Why am I witnessing this miracle, sign, or wonder? So, God can get the glory. Why am I having this challenge in my local assembly, in my ministry, in my business, and in my organization? So God can get the...
The Sacred Sunday Posture:  Kneeling “ A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees; if you are willing, you can make me clean (Mark 1:40).” In addition to bowing your heads and closing your eyes, many people learn to “get on your knees and pray.” Often, it’s at night before going to sleep. Parents instruct their children to kneel on the side of the bed and say their prayers. Perhaps you have fond memories of kneeling and reciting the Lord’s Prayer or the 23 rd Psalm. Or maybe you were taught, like me, “Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake. I pray the Lord, my soul, to take. God bless mommy, daddy...” Kneeling is a physical way to revere God as your Creator and remember that God is your Source. “Know that it is the Lord, who is God. It is he that has made us and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture (Psalm 100:3).” Without reverencing and ...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
