“The life of every living thing is in His hand, as well as the breath of all mankind.” – Job 12:10
There is no greater comfort than knowing that your life rests safely in the hands of the One who created the heavens and the earth. Job reminds us that every living thing finds its life and breath in God. Your existence is not an accident. Your days are not unprotected. Your journey is not unseen. You are held by God Himself.
The Lord has you in the palm of His hand. This means you are never out of His sight and never beyond His care. He watches over you when you rise and when you rest. He walks with you in moments of joy and moments of heaviness. Every detail of your life is known, understood, and covered by His love.
Every aspect of your life is familiar to Him. He knows your plans, your worries, your challenges, and your victories. Before a word forms on your tongue, He already knows it. Before a need arises, He already provides. Before a battle comes, He has already prepared the strength you will need. Your life and your breath are sustained by the Lord your God, and nothing can take you from His grasp.
He is with you to hold you up when the road feels heavy. He steadies your steps when the ground beneath you shakes. He keeps you from stumbling, and when you do fall, His hand is there to lift you again. You are not walking alone. You are walking in the hands of the One who never fails.
So rest today in this truth. Your future is not determined by fear, uncertainty, or the plans of others. Your future is held by God. You are safe. You are seen. You are sustained.
Prayer:
Lord, how reassuring it is to know that my life is secure in Your hands. I will rest in the knowledge that You know me, You hold my future and so I have nothing to fear. In Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
Good morning to you all. Have a blessed Friday.
