*TOPIC: ENGRAVED ON THE LORD'S PALM*
_*"Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of My hands; your walls are continually before Me." Isaiah 49:16.*_
*MESSAGE*
There are seasons when a person may feel discouraged and begin to wonder whether God has forgotten them. You may have prayed for a job for a long time, trusted God for a godly spouse, waited for healing, or believed Him for a breakthrough, yet the answer seems delayed. In such moments, the heart may be tempted to complain like captive Judah, saying, âThe Lord has forsaken me, and my Lord has forgotten me.â But God answers with the tender picture of a nursing mother. He asks whether a woman can forget her nursing child. Even if such a thing were possible, the Lord declares that He will never forget His people.
The bond between a nursing mother and her child is very strong, yet God's love is even stronger, deeper, and more dependable. He does not merely say that He remembers us; He says that He has engraved us on the palms of His hands. This is not like writing with ink that can fade or pencil that can be erased. To engrave is to inscribe permanently, to carve deeply, and to mark in a way that cannot easily be removed. This means that God's people are continually in His thoughts and under His care. He sees us, knows us, remembers us, and carries our concerns before Him.
The Lord also says, âYour walls are continually before Me.â This speaks of the broken walls of Jerusalem, but it also reminds us that God sees the broken places in our lives. He sees the challenges, delays, tears, battles, disappointments, and silent burdens. Nothing about you is hidden from Him, and nothing concerning you is forgotten by Him. At the appointed time, He knows what He will do. Therefore, lift your heart in praise, because God can turn your pain into testimony and your broken walls into a place of restoration. He will never forsake His people, and He will never forget His promises, for we are permanently engraved on His hands.
*ACTION POINT*
Refuse discouragement and trust that God remembers you, sees your broken walls, and will fulfil His promises at the appointed time.
