Where does your help come from?
Psalm 121:1–3 (NIV)
I lift up my eyes to the hills – where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip – he who watches over you will not slumber;
The first three verses of this Psalm start with a question, and then the Psalm ends with a statement of persuasion and a declaration of faith! Have you ever asked yourself the question, "Where does my help come from?" Or maybe, "Where will my help come from in this situation I am facing right here, right now?" The answer given in this Psalm is your answer too, Champion. Your help, whatever that help needs to look like, comes from the Lord. He is and will always be the source of your help, so don't look to the hills with question marks, but rather look to your Lord with an exclamation mark, for He fails not!
Those are some great qualifications God has, "… maker of heaven and earth." When I think about that, it makes Him totally overqualified to help me with my current situations. He who threw the stars into space cares for me and has appointed Himself my Helper and strong refuge. Another great part of this promise is, "He will not let your foot slip!" Remember, the steps of a righteous man (which is what you are through faith in Christ) are ordered of God. Where you are walking at the moment may feel a bit slippery but He will keep your foot from slipping.
He is your never-sleeping help! He that watches over you does not slumber, so He has your back, Champion, and never takes His eyes off of you. Thank God He does not nod off but is constant in His help and assistance. He alone offers an infallible 24-7 service. Today He is your Help! Again, let the confidence of David be yours, and even when you are in the midst of stuff, even stuff that may feel like a valley of death, don't turn your eyes to the hills, but look further upwards and turn them to the God who will save the day!
