Oh, please help us against our enemies, for all human help is useless. With God’s help we will do mighty things, for he will trample down our foes. — Psalm 60:11-12 (NLT) Behold, God is my helper and ally; The Lord is the sustainer of my soul [my upholder].

He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn, and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun. — Psalms 37:5-6 (NLT) Day by day the LORD takes care of the innocent, and they will receive an inheritance that lasts forever.

He Rescues

Image
The next day as we were being violently storm-tossed, they began to jettison the cargo; and on the third day they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands. Since neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm was assailing us, from then on all hope of our being saved was gradually abandoned.   — Acts 27:18-20 (NASB1995) When the storms of life seem to go on and on, do not lose hope. The LORD hears his people when they call to him for help. He rescues them from all their troubles. (Psalms 34:17 NLT) In Isaiah 43:2 (NLT), the LORD says: “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.” You may experience some loss in the midst of the storm. There may be some things you need to get rid of to lighten your load, but the LORD will rescue you. (See Psalms 34:19)

Be Strong & Courageous

Image
“Be strong and courageous, do not fear or be dismayed because of the king of Assyria nor because of all the horde that is with him; for the one with us is greater than the one with him. With him is only an arm of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people relied on the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. — 2 Chronicles 32:8 (NASB1995) Fear not! Be strong and courageous when the enemy comes against you. Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you. Our adversary, the devil, continually prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. (See 1 Peter 5:8) Today, we too have Yahweh on our side, to help us. And He has already provided victory for us through His Son, Yeshua, the Messiah, our mighty Saviour! Despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. (See Romans 8:37 NLT) Amen.

Open Arms

Image
The LORD says, “I was ready to respond, but no one asked for help. I was ready to be found, but no one was looking for me. I said, ‘Here I am, here I am!’ to a nation that did not call on my name. All day long I opened my arms to a rebellious people. But they follow their own evil paths and their own crooked schemes.” — Isaiah 65:1-2 (NLT) Yahweh is always ready to respond. He never sleeps, nor slumbers. His arms are open wide to welcome the lost into His family and into the glorious Kingdom of God. He draws us to Himself with lovingkindness. When you call on Him, He will answer. When you seek Him with all of your heart, He will be found by you. Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. (See 2 Corinthians 6:2) Ask for His help, today. “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who...

For I know that the LORD is great and that our Lord is above all gods. (Psalms 135:5 NASB1995) I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; From where shall my help come? My help comes from Yahweh, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to stumble; He who keeps you will not slumber.

Under Attack?

Image
“O our God, won’t you stop them? We are powerless against this mighty army that is about to attack us. We do not know what to do, but we are looking to you for help.” — 2 Chronicles 20:12 (NLT) In 2 Chronicles 20:2, messengers informed Jehoshaphat, that a vast army from Edom was marching against him. In 2 Chronicles 20:6, Jehoshaphat prayed, “O LORD, God of our ancestors, you alone are the God who is in heaven. You are ruler of all the kingdoms of the earth. You are powerful and mighty; no one can stand against you!” When our enemy attacks, may we remember that no one can stand against Yahweh, our mighty God. He is greater! Look to Yahweh at all times, not just in times of trouble, for our help comes from Him. My help comes from Yahweh, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to stumble; He who keeps you will not slumber. — Psalms 121:2-3 (LSB)

Where is Your Confidence?

Image
Don’t put your confidence in powerful people; there is no help for you there. When they breathe their last, they return to the earth, and all their plans die with them. — Psalms 146:3-4 (NLT) “But blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit. (Jeremiah 17: 7-8 NLT) It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in people. (Psalms 118:8 NLT) May we place no confidence in the flesh, nor in what we have, nor who we are (the titles we wear). But let us be confident in Yahweh, for His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. He rules throughout all generations. The LORD always keeps his promises; He is gracious in all he does. (See Psalms 145:13 NLT) The LORD is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His deeds. The L...

May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high! May He send you help from the sanctuary and uphold you from Zion! (Psalms 20:1-2 LSB) May He grant you your heart’s desire and fulfill all your plans. We will sing joyously over your victory, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners. May the LORD fulfill all your petitions. Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember and trust in the name of the LORD our God. (Psalms 20:4-5, 7 AMP) Praying and trusting Yahweh for victory in whatever trials, troubles and tribulations come your way.
