ACCESSING GOD’S HELP
PSALMS 121:1 – 8
God’s help is needed to live, not to just survive. Help can be defined as giving or providing what is necessary to accomplish a task or satisfy a need. It can also be said to be a means of contributing strength or rendering assistance. It is giving assistance to someone in need. The ultimate and primary source of help is God. The Bible makes us to understand in Psalms 46:1 that God is our ever-present help.
God being your help can mean a lot of things. It could mean God our strength (Psalms 18:1) because it is His strength that can provide the help we need. It also means God our partner. A partner is someone we can readily go to for assistance or advice on what to do. God is all knowing, He is the best partner we can ever have. Therefore, we are to solely depend on God.
Getting help from God guarantees us victory because we conquer the problem that seemed difficult to overcome (Psalms 118:7). When we depend on God for help, we have peace of mind because the fear of drowning in the problem will be taken away (Psalms 34:4). Getting God’s help increases our trust, dependence and confidence in Him as our source. When we get faced with a more difficult problem, we readily go to our source of help knowing that victory is assured.
God’s help is a medium of salvation for men through our testimonies. People get curious about the impossible made possible which soon leads them to also connect to our source of help (God).
The bible tells us in Matthew 7:7 to ask and we shall receive. God’s help can be gotten solely by prayer (Philippians 4:6). 2 Thessalonians 1:11 shows that we always pray to Him and we always ask for help which means every time we need His help we are to pray. Praying every time is equivalent to asking for help since it shows our total dependency on God.
Nothing qualifies us for God’s help but grace. Just like salvation is by grace, getting help is also by grace (Ephesians 2:8). 2 Corinthians 12:9a says,
“And he said unto me, my grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness”
Meaning we asking for grace shows we know that we have weaknesses and this is a sign of humility which God loves so much. By doing this, we show others the strength of Christ.
Psalms 46:1 says,
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble”.
Mark 13:31 says,
“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away”.
The above scriptures give us the assurance that all things will pass away but His Word will not, so we can be sure that Psalms 46:1 will be fulfilled. All we just need to do is to ask. Those who trust on the Lord will be saved (Joel 2:32)
