DAILY?READINGS: Exodus 17; Psalm 55; Acts 9:32-43
Such mighty works are wrought by His hands. Mark 6:2
He could there do no mighty work. Mark 6:5
Many people knew what the Lord could do (vs. 2) but only a few sick folk were healed that day (vs. 5). Instead of believing what they knew to be true and being blessed, they chose their own reasoning, and were impoverished. We, as believers, know what He has done with His hands—especially when they were nailed to a cross on our behalf! Psalm 111:7 says, “The works of His hands are verity and judgment.” In truth and judgment, He brought salvation and consequently God has made Him to have dominion over the works of His hands (Psalm 8:6). Let us thank Him today for His mighty work. —E. N.
Before Thy throne my Surety stands,
My name is written on His hands. —Charles Wesley
