Psalm 124
A Song of Ascents
This psalm is reminiscent of Romans 8.31, if God is for us, then who can stand against us?
Verses 1-5-If God is for us, then nothing can stand against us. The “if” of verse one is answered with the “then” of verses 3-5.
Verses 6-7-God protects us.
Verse 8-God, who created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1.1) is the only source of help for us. All other help will pale in comparison.
When God helps us, do we praise Him? When we sense the world devouring us (verses 1-3), the situations we place ourselves drown us (verses 4-5), and Satan deceives us (verses 6-8), where do we look?
