Today's Devotional
In times of trouble or uncertainty, it's natural to seek assistance. The psalmist begins by looking to the mountains, perhaps symbolizing strength or stability, but quickly acknowledges that true help comes from the Lord. This shift in focus reminds us that while earthly sources can offer support, our ultimate reliance should be on God, the Creator of all.
Turning to God means trusting in His power and acknowledging His role as the Maker of heaven and earth. He possesses the authority and ability to provide the help we need, surpassing any human or material aid.
Today, consider where you seek help during challenges. Are you looking solely to worldly solutions, or are you lifting your eyes to the Lord? Embrace the assurance that God, in His infinite power and love, is your ever-present help.

In what areas of your life do you need to shift your focus from earthly solutions to divine assistance? How can you deepen your trust in God as your primary source of help?
Heavenly Father, I acknowledge that my true help comes from You, the Maker of heaven and earth. Guide me to seek Your assistance above all else and to trust in Your sovereign power. Thank You for being my constant support. Amen.
