Your help comes from the Lord

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore.

Excerpt from Psalm 121

Lift up your eyes all the time to the God of your salvation. He is your refuge and your strength. He will watch over you on this journey. He is just as present in the journey as in the destination.

Beloved, your help comes from the God who made heaven and earth. Your sole source of ‘help’ comes from Yahweh, who, as Creator, has unlimited power. So keep lifting up your eyes. Lift up your eyes all the time to the God of your salvation. 

God will not allow your foot to be moved: He helps His people by establishing them in a firm place, allowing them to stand and not allowing their foot to be moved. God watches over His people as a watchman watches over the city or the party of travellers. You can rest in this truth. Look to the LORD; you can have confidence in the fact that God does not sleep—He watches over you!
