Psalm 108-109 God is our Helper
We live in a world where the spiritual forces against us are strong and powerful. Paul noted it well. “ For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens. [Eph 6:12] It was the same when the OT was written. King David, recognized the enemies around him,some were physical and tangible, but others were spiritual, just as we face. David’s prayer is one we can incorporate. Wisely David says and we can say, without God’s help, they cannot be conquered. Notice his understanding and prayer: “Give us help against the enemy, for any help men might offer is futile, By God’s power we will conquer; he will trample down our enemies.’ [PS 108:12,13]
What enemies are around you today that are physical but others unseen yet real. Who will you depend on, God or man? David recognized that truth, how about you?
