God helps those who… ask for help [Sermon]

You’ve most likely heard it before: “God helps those who help themselves.”

Did you know that’s not actually in the Bible? It makes it sound like God only helps those who are already strong, and maybe even those who push their way to the front to look out for number one.

God does help. In fact, he “keeps” (or “guards”) his people. When they call for help, he answers–not just back then but right now.

Are you open to how he might be helping you in your own specific situation?

This sermon on Psalm 121 explores God as our keeper, and highlights six ways God helps his people — from big actions to encouraging holiness, from guarding against deception to guiding your daily tasks.

God helps those who… ask for help.
