READ: Psalm 33: 17-21(NKJV)

17. A horse [is] a vain hope for safety; Neither shall it deliver [any] by its great strength.
18. Behold, the eye of the LORD [is] on those who fear Him, On those who hope in His mercy,
19. To deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine.
20. Our soul waits for the LORD; He [is] our help and our shield.

THE MESSAGE:

The Psalmist states that a horse cannot provide safety or deliverance. At the same time, he is sure that God watches over those who fear Him and hope in His mercy. God delivers His people from death, protects them from famine, and helps and shields them. God’s people shall rejoice because they trust in Him, and will experience His mercy because they hope in Him.

In a world full of wars, diseases, climate change, environmental disasters, corruption, scammers, ritual killers, sexual immorality, increasing population and high poverty rates, it is acceptable that men will need help. In countries with poor leadership, people will need both help and hope. However, in difficult times, some people seek help at the wrong places like going to native doctors, false prophets, prayer houses, and cult groups for protection, promotion or provision. Are you one of those Christians who patronise such unholy people when you have personal challenges? Remember that we are in the last days (2 Tim. 3: 1-5). God is the help and hope of all Christians. Make God your refuge, strength and a present help when there is trouble (Psa. 46: 1). Call upon Him today for your deliverance (Psa. 50: 15). Will you do so today?
