Psalm 124, if it wasn’t for the LORD!

Psa 124:2-3, “IF IT HAD NOT BEEN THE LORD WHO WAS ON OUR SIDE, When men rose up against us, Then they would have swallowed us alive, When their wrath was kindled against us;

If it wasn’t for the LORD where would we be today? We were slaves to sin without even knowing it! It seemed normal to us, but HE set us free by opening our eyes to the truth!

Rom 6:17-18, BUT GOD BE THANKED THAT THOUGH YOU WERE SLAVES OF SIN, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered. AND HAVING BEEN SET FREE FROM SIN, YOU BECAME SLAVES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.

The LORD was with Israel and fought for them; now HE is with all those that believe in HIM name! HE fights for us even today!

Exo 14:14, THE LORD WILL FIGHT FOR YOU, AND YOU SHALL HOLD YOUR PEACE.

Psa 124:4-5, THEN THE WATERS WOULD HAVE OVERWHELMED US, THE STREAM WOULD HAVE GONE OVER OUR SOUL; THEN THE SWOLLEN WATERS WOULD HAVE GONE OVER OUR SOUL.”

If it wasn’t for the LORD the storms in life would have overwhelmed us, they would have covered us with grief!

Psa 69:15, Let not the floodwater overflow me, Nor let the DEEP SWALLOW ME UP; And let not the PIT shut its mouth on me. 

Remember Peter when he took his eyes off the LORD, and focused on the storm itself! He started to sink and HE cried out for help!

Mat 14:30-31, But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “LORD, SAVE ME!” And immediately JESUS STRETCHED OUT HIS HAND AND CAUGHT HIM, AND SAID TO HIM, “O YOU OF LITTLE FAITH, WHY DID YOU DOUBT?”

Psa 124:8, OUR HELP IS IN THE NAME OF THE LORD, WHO MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH. 

The LORD is always listening for our cries for help! HE is always there and HE desires that none perish but all have eternal life with HIM!

Rom 10:13, For “WHOEVER CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.” 

When you need help who will you call? HE IS THE GOD OF ALL FLESH, NOTHING IS TO HARD FOR HIM!

Jer 32:17, ‘Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. THERE IS NOTHING TOO HARD FOR YOU.
