THE RIGHT
HELP
READ:
Psalm 18:6-13
_____________________________________________________________
In my distress I called
upon the LORD, and
cried out to my God;
...my cry came before
Him, even to His ears.
__Psalm 18:6

On a recent radio program the hosts spoke with a "crisis management" expert about how a celebrity can recover the public relations disaster. This specialist said one of the keys was to build strong allies who can help the star rehabilitate his or her image. In other words, it is vital when in trouble to get the right help.
That is wise counsel, for at the heart of all crisis management is recognizing that we can't accomplish everything on our own. Some challenges are too big. Some mountains are too high. In our own seasons of crisis, it is critical that we have help. That's why it's comforting to know that we have the strongest ally possible.
King David knew about that ally. In Psalm 18:6, he affirmed, "In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried out to my God; He heard my voice from His temple, and my cry came before Him, even to His ears." There is no greater help in our time of need than God. He alone can carry us through the trials and crises of life, and we have His word that He will never leave us nor forsake us (Heb. 13:5).
When crises hits, we don't have to stand alone. we have the right help. We can depend on God to be the greatest ally we could ever know. Lean on Him. __Bill Crowder

***************Today's Bible Reading __ Psalm 18:6-13************
6 In my distress I called
upon the LORD, and cried
out to my God; He heard
my voice from His temple,
and my cry came before
Him, even to His ears.
7 Then the earth shook and
trembled; the foundations
of the hills also quaked and
were shaken, because He
was angry. 8 Smoke went up
from His nostrils, and
devouring fire from His
mouth; coals were kindled
by it. 9 He bowed the
heavens also, and came
down with darkness under
His feet. 10 And He rode
upon a cherub, and flew;
He flew upon the wings of
the wind. 11 He made
darkness His secret place;
His canopy around Him
was dark waters and thick
clouds of the skies. 12 From
the brightness before Him,
His thick clouds passed
with hailstones and coals of
fire.
13 The LORD thundered
from heaven, and the Most
High uttered His voice,
hailstones and coals of fire.

The superscription to Psalm 18 reads, "to the Chief Musician. A
Psalm of David the servant of the LORD, who spoke to the LORD the
words of this song on the day that the LORD delivered him from the
hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul." This context for
the song explains the joy with which David celebrated. God had
rescued him from the one (Saul) who had sought to take his life.
It forms an exuberant declaration of praise to the One who had
delivered David from "all his enemies." We too can celebrate His
great deliverance on our behalf. __BILL CROWDER
