I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth (Ps121: 1-2NIV)
It amazes me that there are so many times in my life where I am like I need help. Whether it’s getting my life together, making life changing decisions, or just dealing with other people I always scream HELP!! And if you are like me, Daddy is the last person you go to when you need help. You may call a friend, sibling, parent, mentor, co-worker… Anybody but Daddy and why is this? The Psalmist ask the question where does my help come from then he answers:”It comes from the LORD the maker of the heaven and earth.” Well that makes sense… Why are we asking for help from people who didn’t even create the situation or solution to what we need help with. Why are we on goggle or bing look for the answer or solution to the situation, when we can easily access the Father? Here is my answer to that question, because Daddy will give us an answer we don’t want to hear. When we ask for help many times we are in desperate need to get an answer or a resolution to the situation. We don’t want to deal with a process or a waiting period, waiting may be the thing we need help with so why give me the lesson on waiting? But that’s Daddy, he want’s us to learn the process of his help and this may mean waiting, or going through various steps. It may mean do something out of our comfort zone or even something we know nothing about. It may simple mean trusting him knowing that wherever he leads or tells us to do will get us to a place of being rescued. We must realize that when we seek help from anything or any one other than Daddy we are setting ourselves up for failure, because we are depending on something or someone that can’t create help. The are giving us help based on experience or due to the experience of other sources that have dealt with similar or same situations, but is is not accurate help. Daddy supplies help that he may have to create or help that may not be visible to the the nature eye.
Prayer: Daddy right now we need your help! We know that many times when we ask for help we seek the help of others or things, but today Daddy we seek your help. We lift our heads and eyes to heaven looking up to you, seeking your presence and ready to receive your wisdom. We surrender our cry for help to you. Daddy help us to wait, help us through the steps, help us through the process, give us the confidence to hold our heads up when we are feeling down. Help us to trust you more, increase our faith, open our hearts to receive your instructions, and help us to lean and depend on you and you alone. Help us to hear your voice, help us to recognize your presence in difficult and chaotic times. Daddy today we scream HELP US DADDY!!! In Jesus Name. AMEN
