“My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.”
John 10:29
In the midst of life’s uncertainties and trials, there is one constant source of security and comfort for believers – the unwavering love and protection of our Heavenly Father. Jesus reassures His followers of this truth, emphasizing the immeasurable security found in being held in the hands of the Father.
The assurance is twofold. First, Jesus affirms the greatness of the Father, emphasizing His sovereignty and power over all things. The One who has given believers to Jesus is greater than any force or enemy that may seek to harm them. Nothing and no one can stand against the omnipotence of God.
Second, Jesus declares the absolute security of those who belong to the Father. Just as no one is able to snatch the sheep out of the hands of the shepherd, so too is no one able to snatch believers out of the hands of the Father. His grip is firm, His love is unwavering, and His protection is unyielding.
Rest in the assurance that His love never fails, His promises are true, and His protection is absolute. And let us live each day with boldness and faith, knowing that we are secure in the hands of our Heavenly Father, who is greater than all.
Pray
Lord, thank You for the immeasurable security and comfort found in Your loving embrace. Help me to trust in Your sovereignty and Your goodness, knowing that no one can snatch me out of Your hands. Help me to live each day with confidence and faith, knowing that I am secure in Your unfailing love. In Jesus’ name, amen.
