God is our Protector

Psalms 121:3 CEV

In the game of football, there is always the goal keeper whose responsibility is to ensure the opponent doesn’t get the ball into the net no matter what.

In the Christian life, God is our keeper; our constant, our protection. The writer of Psalm 121 reminds us that our help comes from the very creator of heaven and earth (v. 2). Our keeper watches our steps (v. 3), and as tired as we may be, He will not fall asleep on the job (v. 4). Verse 7 highlights the extreme care God has for us, stating “The LORD . . . will keep your life.”

Perhaps you feel as though you are losing in life right now. The opposition, whatever that may be or represent, has dealt a substantial blow that landed hard. If you are nodding in agreement right now, remember that God is your defender, and you can trust Him. His mighty hand has deflected shots you were never aware of. He provides shade in which you can rest (v. 5). He is your ultimate safety net. “But the Lord is faithful. He will establish you and guard you against the evil one” (2 Thessalonians 3:3). 

God is my protector

I am safe with Him

Amen
