A "lord" is someone or something who rules over us with power and authority. In times past, lords purchased people to serve them, and they'd form a community where the lord would rule over them, care for them, and protect them. He's the one they'd go to for every need.

Psalm 16:8
I Shall Not be Moved!
The words "right hand" indicate power and strength. After His death and resurrection, Jesus returned to Heaven and sat at God's "right hand," indicating God had given Him equal power and authority.

The Lord Goes Before Me
As Christians, we do not plow our own path and then expect Jesus to come by and make the way clear, but rather, we follow Jesus down the path that He has set for us! Jesus has a purpose for each of us, and it's up to us to study the Scriptures, and spend time … Continue reading The Lord Goes Before Me
