“I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved . . . . Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.” (Psalm 16: 8, 11)
The Bible makes it clear that “the right hand of God” refers to His spiritual authority and power; Exodus 15:6, for example: “Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.”

Spiritually speaking (not anatomically or physiologically), the right hand of God’s image and likeness corresponds to the right hand of God. So how do I lay hold of such power and might as this?
“[God’s] precepts require the disciple to cut off the right hand and pluck out the right eye, — that is, to set aside even the most cherished beliefs and practices, to leave all for Christ.” (SH 141:6) Thus, the right hand of personal self must be amputated that it might permanently give place to the right hand of God.

(MW 323-328) “[L]et us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.” (Heb. 12:1)
I have no access to the right hand of Soul if I am preoccupied with sense. How can my right hand be the image and likeness of God’s right hand if I am allowing my God-given power to slip away? See https://www.inc.com/amy-morin/9-ways-mentally-strong-people-retain-their-personal-power.html.
“Practice not profession, understanding not belief, gain the ear and right hand of omnipotence and they assuredly call down infinite blessings.” (SH 15:28–30, emphasis added)
