In the days leading up to today, the words that kept coming to my heart were that our help comes from the Lord.
The word “help” in Hebrew is ‛ezrâh, meaning aid, and it derives from another word, ‛âzar, meaning to surround.
He is our ever-present help in times of trouble. (Psalm 46:1)
You are my help and my deliverer… (Psalm 40:17)
Give us help from trouble… (Psalm 60:11)
Because You have been my help, therefore in the shadow of Your wing I will rejoice. (Psalm 63:7)
And this song, I Lift My Eyes Up, from Psalm 121.
Father, thank you for surrounding all of us who look to you for comfort and peace today and every day. We pray for your grace and mercy on our nation today for revival, that countless more hearts will look to you, the Creator of heaven and earth, to be their help, their hope, their salvation. It’s in the mighty name of Jesus we pray, amen.
I lift my eyes up, to the mountains
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from You
Maker of heaven, Creator of the earth
Oh how I need you Lord
You are my only hope
You’re my only prayer
So I will wait for you
to come and rescue me
Come and give me life
Amen!!!
Amen!!! God is a constant help in times of trouble. And nothing helps more than thanking Him and praising Him for all of the times He has helped before!! Remembering and praising lifts our eyes up to the ONE who loves to help those who call upon Him 💞
