Helper 1/14/07 Bro. Lee Dotson Heb 13:6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. So that we may boldly say. Without any hesitation or doubt. In all times of trouble and threatening need; in all times when we scarcely know whence the supplies for our necessities are to come, we may put our trust in God, and be assured that he will not leave us to suffer. In the facts which occur under the divine dealings, there is a ground for confidence on this subject which is not always exercised even by good men. It remains yet to be shown that they who exercise simple trust in God for the supply of their needs are never forsaken. (Ps 37:25. I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.) The writer does not cite it as a quotation, but as language which a true Christian may apply. The verse is beautiful, and full of consolation. What can we fear if we have the assurance that the Lord is on our side, and that he will help us? Man can do no more to us than he permits, and of course no more than will be for our own good; and under whatever trials we may be placed, and we have the assurance that the Lord will never leave us. Can you say that the Lord is your helper, if not Jesus is waiting to hear from you? He’s only a prayer away. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. |
