These words have a great meaning with God. They always have as He has worked with His people over the centuries. You’ll find where God speaks of these things in the Old Testament book of Leviticus, which few people probably read because this place in the Bible is a more difficult area for some. But …

Isaiah 49:2 says, “In the shadow of His hand, He has hidden me, and made me a polished shaft.
