I will strengthen you, surely I will Help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right Hand.” So we can see that if God promises to hold us by His righteous right Hand, we are secure indeed. Psalm 121: 5 – 7: says, “The Lord is your Keeper, the Lord is your shade on your right hand. The sun will not smite you by day, nor the moon by night.
