History
The Hand of God is also a catch-all term used to describe any object on Earth that God has touched, imbuing it with traces of His power. There were several God-touched objects on Earth at one point according to Lucifer, but they were believed to not have survived the Great Flood, let alone make it to the 20th century. The power that emanates from the Hand of God is too potent and unstable, making it dangerous to touch bare handed, as a mortal would not be able to survive long making direct contact with the object.
Episodes
11.14 The Vessel
When Delphine shows Dean the Hand of God -- what looks to be a simple piece of wood with small glints of gold -- he is unimpressed. She agrees, it doesn't look like much, but tells Dean that it must have been more impressive in its complete form, when it was the Ark of the Covenant. It implies that The Hand of God may have been a fragment of the Ark of the Covenant, which, according to the Old Testament, is made of wood colored with gold.
