God, Our Help
January 25, 2009
(A picture of Biblical Faith)
I am moved by the reality and immediacy of Psalm 121. The psalmist is speaking
from a perspective of conviction and full reliance on the Lord which is Biblical
Faith!
Psalm 121
GOD IS OUR HELP verses 1-2
It is okay to ask for help; you need it
When we learn who God is, we learn we can trust Him
There is no other help
GOD’S HELP IS SUFFICIENT verses 3-7
He keeps us (Israel) when we cannot keep ourselves
He helps and keeps regardless of our circumstance
He desires to help us in ALL areas of our life
GOD’S HELP IS ONGOING AND EVERLASTING verse 8
There is a beginning
There can be a renewal
There is no end
I present Psalm 121 with these three thoughts:
God is our help
God’s help is sufficient
God’s help is ongoing and everlasting
If we latch onto these 3 truths we will begin to live a life of Biblical faith.
