No need to fear as God helps us
There is no need to fear about anything as God who is our Ebenezer helps us. The Lord is my helper. I will not fear - Hebrews 13:6. Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand - Isaiah 41:10. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” - Hebrews 13:5,6.
No need of help of man as God helps us
There is no need of help of any man for us as God helps us in all situations. He will never leave us nor forsake us. Give us help from trouble, for the help of man is useless - Psalm 60:11. Our help comes from the Lord. I will lift up my eyes to the hills- From whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth - Psalm 121:1,2. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth - Psalm 124:8. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble - Psalm 46:1.
Let us thank God our Ebenezer who had thus far helped us in all our situations. The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and He helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him - Psalms 28:7. You make your saving help my shield, and your right hand sustains me; your help has made me great - Psalm 18:35. You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield - Psalm 115:11. Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God - Psalm 146:5.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for being our Ebenezer and thus far helping us. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
Amen.
