Never Let
   You Go!
 

God has a hold on your life.  He wants to help you achieve and receive what He has for you.  But there may be times you want to let go.  You’ve been holding on for a desire you want to see happen.  A need that must be met.  You need to see a change in conditions.  But now the time has become so difficult you wonder if it’s time to let go.  In spite of how you feel, God won’t let go of what He has for your life.  He will take you past the difficulty and disappointment.  Don’t try to pull away from His hand but allow Him to hold you in the place where you should be.

       How
  Concerned
     Is God?

   If we could just understand how much God is there for us, holding onto our life.  We aren’t going unnoticed, on our own, limited to our own power and abilities and resources.  He watches for everything we need.

   I don’t know about you, but there have been times that I wondered how much detail God really notices about us.  I mean, how much can we talk to Him about what’s happening to us during the day?  Or how we feel about something?  Can we pray to Him about small details?  Can we ask Him about each and everything that concerns us?

   One day in my time of prayer I was thinking about this.  Just how concerned is God?  How much detail should we bring to Him?  Of course, we are responsible for doing what we should do, but beyond that, can we involve God in everything?

   Then when I was thinking about this, I remembered the scripture about how even the very hairs of our head are numbered.  So I thought about that amazing word for a few moments and it was hard to conceive the mighty God caring about that much detail of our lives.

   I got up and began my Bible reading time.  I’m sure you’ve had God do this before—where the very thought or question you had appeared in the Bible when you went to it.

   So I opened my Bible to the passage that was designated to read that day.  And of course, what was it?  Matthew chapter 10.  Are not two little sparrows sold for a penny?  And yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father’s leave (consent) and notice.  But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.  Fear not, then; you are of more value than many sparrows.  (Ref. Matthew 10:29-31.)

   I had just thought about those very words.  The hairs of your head are numbered.  And there it is!  Right in the Bible before me just moments after I thought about it!  God was showing me beyond a shadow of a doubt that He notices every detail.

   Okay, so I have to admit I had tears in my eyes as soon as I saw He was speaking to me the exact words I had just expressed from my heart.  That seems impossible at times.  How can God be able to orchestrate His communication to us so that He knew that day I would be wondering about how much He is involved in every detail of our life and how much we can talk to Him about it and expect Him to care and help us.

   Then the Holy Spirit gives me the thought of the hairs of our head being numbered, and moments after that God arranges it so the passage I’m scheduled to read that day are those very words.  God is the One who can do that type of thing.

   He does it because He has your life in His hands.  He is going to notice everything about you.  Just as a sparrow—which you can imagine how many billions of sparrows have existed over time—yet, not one of them has gone unnoticed by the Father.  How much more valuable are you as a son or daughter than a sparrow?  Much more.

   In fact, even the very hairs of your head are numbered, meaning He watches over everything about you.  Therefore, you have access to Him, where you can talk to Him about anything and everything.  And expect Him to notice it.

   Another version of that same passage puts it this way.  God cares about the sparrow even more than humans do.  But, He pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail—even numbering the hairs on your head!  (Ref. Matthew 10:29-31 MSG.)

   God is paying attention to you.  Down to every detail.  You can talk to Him about anything and know that He cares and He will do something about it.  You’re not out there by yourself trying to make it through everything that happens, taking care of every detail you need.

   You are being held in the hands of God.  He will never let you go.

Spiritual powerline to say out loud:
“I’M IN THE HANDS OF GOD!”

Here is a powerful prayer to say out loud:
Father, I’m so glad I’m in Your hands.  You’re taking care of every detail of my life.  When circumstances seem out of my control, I know You help me.  I’m bringing everything to You and believe for a good outcome.  In the name of Jesus.  Amen.
