Never Alone

David saw in the Spirit something very valuable, that God is constantly with us. He is at our right hand just like He was with David. God showed him this so that he wouldn’t get discouraged, afraid, or give up.

Luke is reminding us of David’s vision so we won’t forget it either. This vision caused David to become excessively happy to the point that he couldn’t help but speak it out loud. He said his flesh dwelled in hope because he knew his earthly body would one day be transformed into a heavenly body.

It’s easy to get distracted by everything going on around us and even in us (emotions, physical issues, etc.) but we can do something about that. We can put on our spiritual eyes and see God constantly before us and at our right side so we can be encouraged, strengthened and immovable. Let our hearts be exceedingly happy and our speech a reflection of His constant companionship and promises! 

“For David says in regard to Him, I saw the Lord constantly before me, for He is at my right hand that I may not be shaken or overthrown or cast down [from my secure and happy state]. Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted exceedingly; moreover, my flesh also will dwell in hope [will encamp, pitch its tent, and dwell in hope in anticipation of the resurrection].”  Acts 2:25-26 AMPC
