A Divine Hug

Genesis 2:24: “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cling unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” Deuteronomy 4:4: “But ye that did cling unto the LORD your God [are] alive every one of you this day. In both these verses the same Hebrew word"deveq" is translated "cling to". Some translations say "cleave unto". We are to be joined unto The Lord as a man cleaves unto his wife in physical union. I Corinthians 6:17 says " But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him". In modern Hebrew the word "deveq" means "glue". Psalms 63:8: “My soul follows hard after you, your right hand upholds me.”The KJV translates this as “My soul follows hard after you.” Some translations render this as “My soul clings to you.” The word for “follows hard’ or “clings” is the same Hebrew word “deveq.” David then says that the “right hand of God sustains me.” The right hand of God represents God’s power. In 1922 a lady called Helen Lemel was married to a wealthy man, but at the age of fifty-five, she went totally blind. Her husband left her and left with nothing. She soon became destitute. In the midst of blindness, heartbreak, and poverty, with unseeing eyes, she looked to Jesus and she saw something. She wrote about in her hymn which became popular throughout the world. “Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim. In the light of His glory and grace.” Jeremiah 29:13 tells us that if we seek God we will find Him if we search for Him with all our hearts. That Divine Hug comes when we seek and search for God with all our hearts ❤️
