MY HELP COMES FROM THE LORD JESUS
“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.” -Psalm 121:1-2 [KJV]
Almighty God’s Word tells us to look up to Him alone for salvation as He reveals Himself in the glorious Person and finished work of Christ (Isaiah 45:21-25). It also tells us that we can look up to Him alone for help in time of need. When we, as children of God, experience trouble in this world, and we often do, our real help can only come from the Lord.
Our brother Job said, “Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble” (Job 14:1). Our Lord JESUS Christ told us that “...in the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). These troubles come from without and from within, but we know that no trouble can separate us from the love of God in Christ (Romans 8:35-39).
And whatever trouble we experience now, we can look up to our Savior and rest in His power, goodness, and grace to preserve us in His righteousness unto glory.
