Is God's Right Hand Changing?

Scripture:
So I say, “I am grieved
that the right hand of the Most High has changed.”[*Hebrew obscure]
Psalm 77:10

Observation: The writer of this psalm is lamenting how times have turned against Israel. According to the footnote, it is unclear how he is describing this change, however this translation is that God's "right hand" has "changed". Regardless the exact interpretation, the sentiment is that, whatever way the Lord had been taking mankind as represented by the glory of his chosen people, that way has changed.

Israel is no longer his right hand, his instrument of his great deeds and glory. This is reenforced as the writer then retells how the Lord has in fact guided Israel, and how his acts of guidance have in fact been signs and wonders that demonstrate his power and splendor to all the world.

For 1,500 years, the Lord guided mankind after they rejected the ability to live in his care, attempting to show them that his wisdom is good. Mankind rejected God's wisdom and pursued false gods. For another 1,000 years, the Lord defined a path for one family to become a kingdom or priests, for the purpose of showing God's blessing to the world. Mankind - even this blessed people - rejected God's blessings and pursued false gods.

And now, for 2,000 years, the Lord has created a way for mankind to freely receive his awesome love through nothing but belief in his son. Mankind is actively rejecting this perfect love, pursuing false gods that offer empty lives and personal pain.

Application: Do we live in a time when God's right hand will change? We know what the "next thing" is ... when the Lord decides it is no longer time to build the church of believers in Jesus, he will instead bring final judgment on all people. The church will cease to be his right hand - the instrument on earth through which he acts to display his love - and instead a very different right hand ... the risen Christ come again ... will take over.

There are so many in need to the Lord's true, great love. They desire that love, but seek it in terrible, ignorant places. It seems to me that this cannot endure much longer.

Prayer: Lord, Yahweh, Jehovah, Adonai, El Shaddai, Elohim, El Roi, Abba, I thank you for your love. I do wish those who seek love and attention would actually learn where they can find it, and find it in great and perfect abundance, in you. However, it does feel like your right hand is about to change. May I, my family, my friends, and your church, be ready. Amen.
