The Finger Of God

Jesus is 'the finger of God'.

"And he gave to Moses, when he had finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone, written with the finger of God." - Exodus 31:18 ESV

"But if it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you." - Luke 11:20 ESV

A finger touches one thing at one time in one place.

"And a leper came to him, imploring him, and kneeling said to him, 'If you will, you can make me clean.' Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him and said to him, 'I will; be clean.' And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean." - Mark 1:40-42 ESV

We need this touch to happen at specific times. It isn't general understanding. It is a visitation that happens in a moment.

If I'm in a hospital bed hurting and someone comes in and puts their hand on my shoulder that is special. That is more than a text message. It is weighty.

God reached out and touched the world two thousand years ago. A baby was born who changed the course of human events and opened Heaven to us.

Jesus Is sitting on a throne right now. That is His position and it is an important one for us.

"Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died--more than that, who was raised--who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?" - Romans 8:34-35 ESV

God can't forget us because Jesus is right there 'reminding' God as our representative.

Thank you for doing that God. You sent Your Son and now He Is seating beside You. You look at Him and see us.
