When trouble comes, and it will, where can we turn for help? The Psalmist answers his own question by reminding us that the Lord is our help.
Psalm 121:1-3 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
He knew that the real source of his help was Almighty God. He isn’t referring to a friend or an ally but to the Creator of the universe.
If God can make this world, then surely He has the power to take care of us.
God knows how easy it is for us to slip into sin and into discouragement. We must remember that He is ever with us and has promised to help us with his presence and power, Heb. 13:5; Matt. 28:20; Rom. 8:31; Heb. 7:25!
