While sitting in my classroom at school, I sometimes hear from down the hall or outside my door: "walk down the hallway to the focus room or I will help you" (read: drag/carry you). This is sometimes accompanied by shrieking, sobbing, or screaming. : )
I need help. Breathtakingly wonderful is the fact that God, all-powerful and omniscient and sovereign and immutable, has proclaimed Himself my helper. Not "He'll help you if you can't do it yourself" but "He is my help."
But You, O LORD, be not far off; O You my help, hasten to my assistance.
Psalm 22:19
Hear, O LORD, and be gracious to me; O LORD, be my helper.
Psalm 30:10
Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why have you become disturbed within me?Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him,The help of my countenance and my God.
Psalm 42:11
Rise up, be our help, And redeem us for the sake of Your lovingkindness.
Psalm 44:26
Behold, God is my helper;
The Lord is the sustainer of my soul.
Psalm 54:4
For You have been my help,
And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy.
Psalm 63:7
You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD;
He is their help and their shield.
Psalm 115:11
Psalm 146 is titled "The Lord an Abundant Helper".
I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper,
that He may be with you forever.
John 14:16
He was David's Helper, and He is my Helper.
A gracious helper, a loving helper, an abundant helper.
God is a joy-giving helper, a protecting helper,
a present helper, a sustaining helper.
Lord, thank you.
