You Are Engraved In the Palms of My Hands

Published on Jan 4, 2013

A few months ago, I was thinking about God's love for us- and while contemplating Him, He actually shared something with me. I was taken a-back, as I am not a very spiritual person- being someone who has afflicted our Lord many times in my past and having only recently responded somewhat to His call to return to Him.
God shows no partiality and has no favorites. He shares what He will with Whom He sees fit at any given moment- and because I was contemplating it at a time noone else was, He shared this with me. He hears all of our thoughts. I prayed about wether He would permit me to share this with others- but today I feel He has. While in prayer, He gave me a sense of His intense love and passion for both the literal and spiritual House of Isreal. For a momentary flash, without words He showed me how He truly LOVES the nation of Israel, and longs for them to accept Jesus Christ, Our Messiah Whom He had sent for them and for us. I FELT His love for them -and that love was very intense- MUCH more stronger than any love I could ever generate from my own soul. If I were to feel the full extent of His love, I would have been consumed by His Love- and probably would have died of a heart attack which wouldnt have been a bad thing!

After He made me feel His love for the Physical Israel, He then shared with me a flash of His intense Love for His Spiritual House of Israel as well. His Spiritual Israel are those people who have chosen Him above all else in this World and are allowing the Holy Spirit to prepare and seperate them as His Son Jesus's (Yeshua's) Bride. The Bride of Christ is made up of all whom allow the Lord to discipline and perfect them through the personal Wilderness and trials He permits in their daily lives. They live on this Earth for Him alone. They are called from every denomination, and they don't live for man's approval- just Christ's.

Today, I opened by "accident" to the book of Isaiah- Chapter 49, That whole chapter is a prophetic word of encouragement to Both the physical and spiritual Isreal. My eyes, particularly fell on verse 14-16. Our Heavenly Father says, "Zion said, "The Lord has forsaken me, my Lord has forgotten me." "Can a woman forget her suckling child that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you. Behold, I have graven you on the palm of My hands; your walls are continually before me."

Our Father's Son, Jesus Christ, was literally impaled in His feet- and Hands with very large crude nails. He, the Lamb of God-- our Father's "Isaac" had His hands "graven" that way, and what He experienced, you can be sure His Father in Heaven experienced WITH Him. At Golgatha, we were engraved in the palm of Jesus's hands. On that Day that Jesus Christ, our King, returns we will see the scars in His hands-- scars revealing His intense Love for His Bride!

May we who are mere babes in Christ- who have yet to grow into His sons and daughters, allow the Holy Spirit to prepare us now, to be His seperated people with Him as our only Love-- and be made ready for our Groom who loves us with a love we cannot comprehend.
