God is invisible, but His power is manifest throughout
the earth. Though we cannot see Him, but it is only a fool that denies
His existence and power. The Scripture reveals that ever since
God created the world, His invisible qualities, both His eternal
power and His divine nature, have been clearly seen: they are perceived
in the things that God has made (Rom 1:20 GN).
It is interesting to know that the world is not
ruled from the United Nations Building in New York or from the White
House in Washington DC, or from the palaces of the Presidents and
Heads of States of the world. It is ruled from Heaven. There is a
mighty invisible hand that rules peoples, nations, kingdoms and kings.
That is the hand of the Almighty God, the King of Heaven (Ps 103:19).
When the Amalekites attacked Israel, Joshua went
to the warfront with thousands of the mighty soldiers of Israel.
But the battle was fought and won at the background. On the mountaintop,
Moses stood with hands lifted up, to bring to bear the invisible
hand of God on the battle. When Moses’ hands were weary and
came down, Amalek prevailed. But when his hands remained up, Israel
prevailed. When it was propped up with stones by Aaron and Hur that
the hands remained up, Israel vanquished their enemies.
We need to bring to bear the invisible hand of God
in every situation of need in our lives. We must all acknowledge
that we cannot face all our life battles in our own strength. Moreover,
there is a spiritual side to every situation we face in life. It
is only in bringing to bear the invisible hand of God through faith
and prayer that we can always guarantee our victory.
Pray, Lord, stretch out your invisible hand over
every situation in my life, and grant me victory in Jesus name.
