Thank God for Help & Protection:
Psalms 120-127 deal with topics
dear to the heart of travellers
far from home: peace (120, 122);
Protection (121, 125, 127);
and provision (123, 124, 126).
As youbread these “hymns of
the highway,” imagine yourself
on a journey of life with your destination now in view.
Lord, You Help and Protect us:
I will lift up my eyes to the hills-
from whence comes my help?
My Help Comes from the Lord,
who made the heavens & the earth!
He will not let you stumble and fall;
the one who Watches over you
will not slumber (Psalm 121:1-3).
The Lord Himself Watches over you!
The Lord stands besides you
as your protective shade (v5).
The Lord Keeps you from Evil
and preserves your life.
The Lord keeps watch over you
as you come and go
both now and forever (v7-8).
Lord, I will lift my eyes to You
for our Help comes from You,
who made the heavens and earth!
Because You hold me, I will not
stumble and fall. Because You
watch over me, I will not fear
for my security is in You my God.
Thank You for watching over me
and for caring about my situation.
Thank You I am not alone for You
are with me and helping me. Amen
Lord, I pray for protective covering.
And thank You for Watching over
and protecting my loved ones!
What peace it gives me to know
that You never slumber or sleep.
And that I can confidently entrust
those I love to Your care & keeping.
Bless and keep my family coming
and going both now & always.Amen
Lord, Your assurance to Your
followers is that You Will Keep
them from all Evil. Thank You
Lord that though evil may come,
it has no real power over me.
I believe that You will, as promised
preserve my life. I want to live
with confidence that I am safe
in You. And I purpose to trust You
and not worry over things; even
as I lift my eyes up to You. Amen.
