The Heavy Hand That Frees

How marvelous and instructive is your Hand, Lord.
It’s the same gentle Hand that puts my heart at ease
and its the same mighty Hand that rebukes me.
O’ where would I be without your Heavy Hand, Father.
A lost and miserable man would I be; wandering through 
the desert with no hope in sight seeking for water and not
finding it. 
O’ how strong is your conviction when your Heavy Hand is
upon me; such a heavy, intense weight is placed on my soul. 
How my flesh wants to ignore, defy, and flee it, but Your 
Holy Spirit whispers to me that I be still and come back to You.
Yes, Your Heavy Hand shows me the wicked error of my ways. 
Your Heavy Hand reveals how my sins try to disconnect me from You.
But your Heavy Hand won’t let me go because I am your's, Lord. 
Just as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights, so it is 
when Your Hand is over me. Thank you, Abba!
You rebuke those that you love; ones that You call Your children.
Father, Your Hand helps me to repent of my sins and guides me
to sin no more.  
Though Heavy is Your Hand my, God, O’ how it sets me free. 


Inspirational Bible Verses:

Psalms 32: 3-5 NKJV

When I kept silent, my bones grew 
old
Through my groaning all the day long. 
For day and night Your hand was 
heavy upon me;
My vitality was turned into the drought
of summer 
                                                      Selah

I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions
        to the Lord,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. 
                                        
                                                       Selah

1 Peter 5:6 NKJV

Therefore humble yourselves 
under the mighty hand of God, that He
may exalt you in due time,

Romans 8:1 NKJV

There is therefore now no 
condemnation to those who are in 
Christ Jesus, who do not walk 
according to the flesh, but according
to the Spirit.
