I love this verse because it says Jesus is upholding all things, not some things or a few important things, but all things by the word of His power. Colossians 1:17 He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together. Wow! That's powerful!
Knowing Jesus is that powerful then gives us great confidence for the next bit because God has gone even further and made it personal for us in Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you. I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. When God is in our lives, Jesus Himself is upholding every part of us. He has placed His own Holy Spirit within us to do that.
Even when things look like they may be falling apart we can go to Jesus and know He is not only holding us together but He's maintaining and sustaining us; we are not going to fall apart regardless of what else looks like it might. He says He's made us strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Glory to God, we take that by faith.😊
So if we have a time when we might feel like we're coming apart at the seams we can say by faith "I'm not going to be upset or fearful because Jesus, the One who holds all things together, is also holding me together and holding me up above the circumstances. He's making me strong and helping me no matter what. I'm going to be more than ok because He has a tight hold of my hand and He's not letting me go. Thank You Lord. Amen."
