Help Lord

[Debp]

A simple prayer offered in sincerity is always heard by the Lord.

Following is by Charles Spurgeon the prince preachers.

"Help, Lord."
Psalm 12:1

The prayer itself is remarkable, for it is short, but seasonable, sententious, and suggestive. David mourned the fewness of faithful men, and therefore lifted up his heart in supplication--when the creature failed, he flew to the Creator. He evidently felt his own weakness, or he would not have cried for help; but at the same time he intended honestly to exert himself for the cause of truth, for the word "help" is inapplicable where we ourselves do nothing. There is much of directness, clearness of perception, and distinctness of utterance in this petition of two words; much more, indeed, than in the long rambling outpourings of certain professors. The Psalmist runs straight-forward to his God, with a well-considered prayer; he knows what he is seeking, and where to seek it. Lord, teach us to pray in the same blessed manner.

The occasions for the use of this prayer are frequent. In providential afflictions how suitable it is for tried believers who find all helpers failing them. Students, in doctrinal difficulties, may often obtain aid by lifting up this cry of "Help, Lord," to the Holy Spirit, the great Teacher. Spiritual warriors in inward conflicts may send to the throne for reinforcements, and this will be a model for their request. Workers in heavenly labour may thus obtain grace in time of need. Seeking sinners, in doubts and alarms, may offer up the same weighty supplication; in fact, in all these cases, times, and places, this will serve the turn of needy souls. "Help, Lord," will suit us living and dying, suffering or labouring, rejoicing or sorrowing. In him our help is found, let us not be slack to cry to him.

The answer to the prayer is certain, if it be sincerely offered through Jesus. The Lord's character assures us that he will not leave his people; his relationship as Father and Husband guarantee us his aid; his gift of Jesus is a pledge of every good thing; and his sure promise stands, "Fear not, I will help thee."

Stay in prayer and in the holy scriptures .
And be not envious at the wicked .
For though he prosper and had great riches, the end of that man is wailing .
And do not marvel when false prophets can become very rich with this worlds wealth
Nor sit under such ever once believing that because they are attaining much wealth
that somehow GOD is well pleased with such .
Remember if the Prophet be decieved THE LORD GOD has decieved it ,
And do answer one according to the idols of their heart . but the end of such a man IS Not good .
To the trenches debp and all . The hour is late and THE DELUSION grows by the hour now .

The victory be not in the strength of many horses in battle
nor to the Iron wall of defense one has around a city
For all that can come a tumbling down in an instant and a great breach of a mighty river
runs through those streets .
THE VICTORY belongs to THE LORD JESUS the CHRIST
and in HIM is our victory .
Vain is the help of man and to trust in the earthern and in its might and in its riches and armies , govts and leaders , IS ALL in vain .
THE LORD GOD is our helper and we shall not fear what man can do to us .
IN HIM we have the victory , in HE was have salvation and a city to come prepared by THE LORD .
Our country is heavenly and our piligramge is like that of abraham . WE await the promise
of KING JESUS and his return , and a city prepared of GOD is our home .
TO the trenches debp and all , for vain is hope in man , HOPE THOU IN GOD and IN HIS CHRIST
for there is no continuing city here or govt . Our city cannot be moved and its KING be JESUS CHRIST
who is seated at the Right hand of the Father .
WHO is he who overcomes the world ............HE who beleives On JESUS the CHRIST .
TO the trenches debp and all .
