God the Help of Those Who Seek Him

Psalm 121:1-2 
I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help? 
My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth. 

Application: 

Psalm 121 The psalmist considers the mountains of Israel, mighty towers of rock. Such images of strength caused him to ask himself, Where will my help come from? (121:1). He concludes that help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth (121:2). Indeed, the greatest protection doesn’t come from the mountains—but from the one who created the mountains.

121:3–4 The Lord is the Protector of his people (121:3). There is no safer place in the universe than being where God wants you to be. He cannot be defeated, and he does not slumber or sleep (121:4).

121:5–8 The Lord is a shelter (121:5). He protects from all manner of evil, physical and spiritual. He guards his people from all harm, whether by day or night, whether they are coming or going (121:6–8). Submit yourself to God’s kingdom, then, and receive the blessings of his covenantal covering.

When God inspires me, I write blogs. Consider this writing as a Bible study. Like the Bereans in Acts 17:11, search the Scriptures to determine whether what I write is so. Always consult with your church ministers about biblical matters. I am also not a professional writer, so some grammar or spelling errors may be present. I try my best to write as efficiently as possible. Your brother in Christ, Ricardo
