Unthwartable Helper, Unthwartable Hope...Hallelujah

 

Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess,
 for he who promised is faithful.
Heb.10:23



This post is inspired once again in part
(click on the link to read an awesome account of His help!)

He spreads the snow like wool...Psalm 147:16)



Our help comes from the Lord (Psalm 121:1)
What confidence to know
Beyond the means earth can afford
God will His help bestow

We are never alone (Deut. 31:6, Heb. 13:5)
The sacred company
Of He who sits on heaven’s throne
Chaperons you and me

We may be of good cheer (John 16:33)
Midst trying test unfurled
For He who bends a listening ear
Has overcome the world

Though evil schemes and roars (1 Pet.5:8, Job 1:7))
It cannot overthrow
We, who are more than conquerors (Romans 8:37)
Through He who loves us so

Our help comes from the Lord (Psalm 121:1)
Maker of earth and skies
Who, through the wellspring of His Word
Sustains and satisfies (Psalm 107:9)

As we trust in (wait on) God’s will (Psalm 27:14)
May good courage endure
As the joy earth cannot fulfill (1 Thess.4:13-18)
Keeps our hope secure

Psalm 121

I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to [a]be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is your [b]keeper;
The Lord is your shade at your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord shall [c]preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.
8 The Lord shall preserve[d] your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
