Scripture: Psalm 123
1 Lord, I look up to you,
up to heaven, where you rule.
2 As a servant depends on his master,
as a maid depends on her mistress,
so we will I keep looking to you, O Lord our God,
until you have mercy on us.
3 Be merciful to us, Lord, be merciful;
we have been treated with so much contempt.
4 We have been mocked too long by the rich
and scorned by proud oppressors.
Observation:
Today’s Psalmist, like yesterday looks to the heavens for his aide. He looks to the Only God. He writes: “Lord, I look up to you, up to heaven, where you rule.” (Psalm 123:1)
Application:
Where do you look for help? Can you say like our psalmist, that you look to the Lord for your help?
Prayer:
Dear Lord, you are constantly with us through your Holy Spirit. I will look to your word with the help of your Spirit that I might walk in the ways that lead to life eternal. I will look to Jesus for my example of how I should live my life, for Jesus you are the way, the truth and the life. Amen.
