While debating what car to purchase, I had all but settled on a Toyota® Corolla. As I weighed the merits of my choice and finalized my decision, the other Corollas on the road began to jump out at me. I’m sure they had been there all along, but my awareness was heightened by my attentiveness to my new car.
In a similar fashion, my fascination with the reference to God’s right hand began while I was meditating on Isaiah 41 at a ladies’ retreat hosted by the South Baton Rouge Church of Christ in September 2012. I later included those reflections in an article for Wineskins magazine (May 2013), and in chapter 4 of the first Iron Rose Sister Ministries interactive Bible study, Human AND Holy. I will share some of those reflections in Chapter 2: A Promise of Protection and Salvation.
However, after that weekend, like my Corolla, I started to notice how often the Bible refers to God’s right hand: sixty-four times, according to the NIV! The references were jumping off of the pages of Scripture and I was captivated. It was as if God’s right hand was guiding me to those passages and, ultimately, to sharing the encouragement found through those verses with you.
When facing challenges, filled with fear, or on shaky ground, I have been renewed and strengthened by the reminder that I am secure in God’s right hand.
Please join me in taking God’s right hand as he enlightens us and broadens our understanding of the honor, blessing, power, authority, protection, salvation, strength, and righteousness that come at his right hand.

God has carried me and Iron Rose Sister Ministries in His capable right hand all the way to Searcy, Arkansas, and to the release of the second small-group interactive Bible study book, In God’s Right Hand: Whom Shall I Fear?
Thank you for your prayers through this process and transition!
I am extremely excited to share with you the promises and hope that are found in God’s right hand.
Securely held in God’s right hand, whom shall I fear? A vivid description of our heavenly Father that transcends the Old and New Testaments, God’s right hand is a special place of honor from which he demonstrates power and authority, promises protection and salvation, and provides a source of strength. God’s righteous right hand is also where Jesus sits to intercede for us. Through this six-week interactive Bible study, we will explore these characteristics of God’s living and active right hand in our lives. Let’s join hands with him and walk together on the journey!
