Psalm 125:1–2

PROTECTION #2

Psalm 125:1-2. “They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people henceforth even for ever.”

PROTECTION #2. This is a changing time and place The world around and life speeds apace Every temptation that flesh brings before my face Can’t penetrate through God’s mountains.

The forests can burn, so can my house and home Injuries happen, and sickness will come I may be empty-handed when all is said and done But I am still surrounded by God’s mountains.

For God can bring joy in the midst of sorrow If I have nothing and may have to borrow I know God takes care of both today and tomorrow For I am shielded by God’s mountains.

Forests can reseed and again can grow I can rebuild a lost home, I know Broken bones can heal, returning health can show I am safe forever behind God’s mountains.

“I am thankful to Thee, O God, in these crisis times, that Thy angel is near, Thy spirit is within, and the Father and Son abide here. These mountains of safety supplied by Thy grace give me contentment and peace. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
