“The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,” (Ezekiel 37: 1)That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.Ezekiel began his treatise by speaking of how the hand of the Lord was upon him and carried him out in the Spirit of the Lord. The word ‘upon’ consists of two words: up and on. So a time came in the life of Ezekiel when he saw the hand of the Lord ‘up’ above, probably distant from him, and then, the same hand that seemed distant came upon him. What was far away came closer.Friend, hear me as I hear the Lord: in this season, every manifestation of the hand of the Lord that you have seen ‘up’ will come on you. The hand of the Lord is coming upon all that you do; the hand of the Lord is coming upon your family; the hand of the Lord is coming upon your marriage, career, business, vocation, visions, and all that concerns you.When the hand of the Lord came upon Ezekiel, it didn’t leave him in the same spot; that hand carried him in the Spirit of the Lord. Ezekiel was transported to another level by the hand of the Lord that was upon him. Hear me as I hear the Lord: as the hand of the Lord comes upon you, you will be transported to a higher level. The hand of the Lord will take you to realms you cannot take yourself to; the hand of the Lord will move you forward.The hand of the Lord does valiant things; the hand of the Lord knows no opposition; the hand of the Lord moves a man from where he is to where God wants him to be; the hand of the Lord causes a man to make progress that his generation can clearly see. By reason of the hand of the Lord upon you, may your progress and advancement be clear to all around you. By reason of the hand of the Lord, may your evidence be visible.Ask the Lord to put His hand upon you; ask the Lord to move you to higher realms by His hands.Psalm 118: 16 says: “The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.”Declare With Me: The hand of the Lord is upon me; I move into higher realms, in Jesus’ name!Follow on Instagram @jerry_ezeFollow on Twitter @jerrystreams
