Read Psalm Chapter 124
Key Verse: Psalm 124:1a…
“Author is David”
1 What if the Lord had not been on our side?
Let all Israel repeat:
2 What if the Lord had not been on our side
when people attacked us?
3 They would have swallowed us alive
in their burning anger.
4 The waters would have engulfed us;
a torrent would have overwhelmed us.
5 Yes, the raging waters of their fury
would have overwhelmed our very lives.
6 Praise the Lord,
who did not let their teeth tear us apart!
7 We escaped like a bird from a hunter’s trap.
The trap is broken, and we are free!
8 Our help is from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, when I feel attacked and overwhelmed by the oppression of the enemy, it seems You have left my side. I know that is not true, but if You weren’t on my side this life would be filled with inescapable trials and unreachable goals. But You are with me, You are on my side, and I praise You, Lord, for being my rescue. Thank You, Lord, for always being my help when I need you. With You, Lord, I am free! It is You, Lord, who is my help in desperate situations, and it is You who I trust. Amen.
