From Where Does My Help Come?

I was reading Psalm 121 this morning and was overwhelmed with what it says.


"I lift up my eyes to the hills.  From where does my help come?  My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth."


  My help comes from the LORD, Yaweh, the self-sufficient One, the maker of all things!  How incredible is that?!  The Holy One cares for me a sinner saved by His amazing grace.  Then I go on to read verses 3-6.


"He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber.  Behold, he who keeps Israel  will neither slumber or sleep.  The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is your shade on your right hand.  The sun shall not strike you by day, not the moon by night."


God is watching over me 24/7.  He doesn't get tired and need a nap or nod off when things get crazy.  His watch over me is continuous.  He guards me even to the point of not allowing even the slightest part of me to be moved.  What a comfort to know that He cares so much for me.


"The LORD will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life.  The LORD will keep your going our and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore."


What a wonderful promise to be kept from evil and to know that God will be guarding my life. Both my coming and going forevermore!  This gives me such encouragement to know that God loves me enough to keep watch over me and to care for me.  Yes, my help comes from Jehovah Jirrah, my provider, King of Kings and LORD of LORDs the self-existent One who is the same yesterday, today and forever and the creator of both heaven and earth.
