THE SOURCE OF POWER, THE RIGHT HAND. The LORD {JEHOVAH} appeared. From his right hand there went forth a law of fire. Even under the Law, the Word and the right hand are associated. The Lord Jesus is the eternal Word. Deut. 33:2 Note, the five fold promise of I AM. His presence is assured to those who trust in Him. The right hand of RIGHTEOUSNESS is their stay and strength. Isa. 41:10 His right hand is full of righteousness. That righteousness is imputed to His people. Ps. 41:10 The Lord Jesus exhalted to the right hand of the throne of God where he is seen in a manifold capacity, among them He will sit in royal power as a Prince, an author, or one in leadership and authority. Likewise He received the title of Savior, a deliverer, to protect or preserve, even the suggestion of healing is found in Christ as Savior. Acts 5:31 Having been enthroned at the right hand of the Father, He has sent forth a witness, the Holy Ghost. When we have received the person of the Spirit into our life, He becomes a personal testimony to us that the Lord Jesus is at the right hand of the Father. That He was raised from the dead. That He is our intercessor. Acts 2:33 His right hand is our hope of deliverance from all the problems and troubles of this life. He will stretch forth His hand and save. Ps. 138:7
THE RIGHT HAND OF VICTORY. Those that would be an enemy to the Lord have no possibility of being victorious. He knows where they are and will find them and destroy them completely. Ps. 21:8 Utter annihilation awaits them. They will become like a furnace of fire, swallowed up and destroyed by the fire. v.9 How beautifully and wonderfully the Word of God dovetails together. Paul expressed the same thing in relationship to the second coming of the Lord Jesus. The Lord Jesus shall be REVEALED, {manifest, disclosed}, coming with His mighty angels. Coming in flaming fire with great indignation against those who have refused and resisted the gospel message. Their punishment is eternal. They will be separated forever from all that is God or from His glorious presence. Please take a good hard look at the time element involved here. This will happen when He comes to be GLORIFIED IN HIS SAINTS, in other words the rapture. 2 Thes. 1:7-10 There are three things that take place here. He, Christ is REVEALED, that means a non secret appearance. He will come openly, visibly, every eye (Rev. 1:7) from Adam to the last man will see His coming. When He is revealed He is coming to resurrect the dead in Christ and transform those who are yet living and are in Christ that He might GLORIFY them. Coinciding with this great and long anticipated event, unfortunately it will be the time of the visitation of the wrath of the Lord against all His enemies. The glory and power of the right hand of God will be made known in a mighty display of deliverance and judgment at one and the same time. It is important that we spend time on an intensive sturdy of the scriptures pertaining to the subject of the Coming of the Lord Jesus
THE EXCEEDINGLY SHARP ARROWS OF THE LORD. The arrow of the Lord is any weapon that He might hurl at His enemies. They are effective, they are sharp and they are deadly. When His arrows are made manifest it is called, an act of God. Most certainly it is. The kings enemies are destroyed and the nations are defeated by the piercing arrows of the Lord. Ps. 45:5 What is the reaction of the Lord in relationship to the wickedness of today and its constant increase? The answer is not a pleasant one, God is angry with the wicked every day. He has prepared for war and judgment. His weapons of warfare are made ready. Ps. 7:11-13 It is well that this world know that there is a day, predetermined by God, when He will judge the world. That day cannot nor will it be delayed or hurried. It is an appointed day for judgment. Acts 17:31 It is not scriptural for any to say that the day of the Lord may be put off or speeded up. Who can change a day that has been set by the Lord?
