We have Escaped from the Strife of the World through God

Verses: Psalms 124: 1 - 8

Song inspired by the chapter:  Song has been uploaded from YouTube.com and is not my original.

My thoughts about the verses:

God is there helping us escape from the powers that would keep us down.  God is our rescuer and our strength.  We shall overcome all things in this world through the power of God.  God is strong and merciful.

It is amazing if we look at how our life would be without God.  Think of all those moments when you felt alone.  Think of those moments when you feared death and pain.  Then imagine if that was the way everyday of your life felt.  Imagine not having any hope for things to be better.

This is how it feels when we do not have God in our life.  We are alone in this world fighting through day to day issues.  Things that seem small in others eyes are huge obstacles for us to overcome.  We have no one to truly turn to for our saving grace.

God is there for all that want to escape from their transgressions.  God is there carrying us and helping us get through our day to day trials.  God does not abandon those that call upon the name of the Messiah.  We need to remember that no one or thing can take us away from the grace and mercy of God.  It is important to understand that without God your are alone.  Yet, with God you have your helpmate with you in all things.

Prayer:

We praise you God for your saving grace.  We thank you God for never abandoning us.  We praise you for helping us to escape from the transgressions in our life.  Help us turn our lives over to you.  Help us share our stories to others so that they might find your salvation and grace.  Help us be the people that you have intended us to be.  In the name of the Messiah we pray.  Amen

Questions:

Do you feel alone?  Have you asked God to come into your life?  Are you willing to turn everything over to the one on High?  Is today the day that you accept the power of mercy that is God’s helping hand?
