150 Days of Psalms - Psalm 124

"Whew! That was lucky!"

"Wow! We lucked out on that one!"

You've heard and maybe even used phrases like these. And I'm sure nothing is really meant by them except "that was close!" But how much more of a testimony would we have if we recognized God's hand in our deliverance from evil, from accidents or from other problems? This is NOT to suggest that if we have problems it's because God was asleep at the wheel (look back at the post for Psalm 121.)

Here in Psalm 124 it is obvious to the psalmist that God is the One who was one their side and because He was on their side all of the calamities that were possible did not happen.

Can you testify with the psalmist "our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth?"
