“Lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees”
(
Heb. 12:12
12
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; (Hebrews 12:12)
).
We are exhorted not to let our hands hang down. There is no reason why it should be so. Though you are under the scourge, there is not one single reason why your hands should hang down or your knees be feeble, for the Spirit has shown you yourself first in company with Christ and then with your Father who loves you. Is there any reason why you should travel as if you did not know the road?
Beautiful conclusion! We all know how the hands will hang down, but there is no reason that we should be faint-hearted. Having come to that, he looks around. Do not let your own hands hang down, and in connection with others follow
peace
in connection with God follow
holiness. “What communion hath light with darkness?... What concord hath Christ with Belial?”
(
2 Cor. 6:14-15
14
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15
And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? (2 Corinthians 6:14‑15)
).
