“Sit At My Right Hand”

The Lord says to my lord: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”

The Lord will extend your mighty scepter from Zion, saying, “Rule in the midst of your enemies!”

Your troops will be willing on your day of battle. Arrayed in holy splendor, your young men will come to you like dew from the morning’s womb.

The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind: “You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.”

The Lord is at your right hand; he will crush kings on the day of his wrath.

He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead and crushing the rulers of the whole earth.

He will drink from a brook along the way, and so he will lift his head high.

Psalm 110:1-7

Perhaps the difficult mountain you face is a rebellious child or a serious medical diagnosis. The challenge seems more than you can endure.

Before you face your next major task, visit the spring of refreshment that is God himself. Come To Him with all your weakness, weariness, helplessness, fear, and doubt. Then drink deeply of His power, strength, and wisdom. God know all your circumstances and will supply a store of comfort, of spiritual strengthening and consolation. He will life your head and give you strength to go on.

He who overrules all things, enables Christians to continue on their way.
