God is Our Keeper, Trust Him
The Lord is your keeper… Psalm 121:5
Undoubtedly everyone here this morning needs help in one way, shape, or form. Perhaps it feels trivial: maybe you need help cleaning up your leaves, getting your meal plan ready for the week, or washing your car. Maybe you even know a pastor who has a house under construction who might just email you soon for help painting his house?!
God is our keeper; in Him we are secure. He is our Father, counselor, and shelter in the time of storm. In Him we are safe. We trust Him with our life—for the wisdom of His ways, for the blessings of His favor, for the sufficiency of His grace and for the power of His Spirit. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, one of the definitions of trust is a dependence on something future or contingent: hope. This sounds like our God doesn’t it? God is the one in which we can depend. He is the one who does not lie and will not fail. God is our strength, our Rock and our provider.
I don’t know where you are at on this spectrum of needing help today, but I want to ask you to stop for a moment and identify that area you would like help. Once you do, seek God for direction in this area. The point of Psalm 121 isn’t to focus on the problem, but rather, to stop and focus on the one and only solution to our problem: Yahweh.
