“Our help is in the name of the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.” (v.8)
Where would we be without God’s help, His sustaining power? If it had not been for the LORD (like the psalmist indicates), we too would be “swallowed alive” by our enemies; hatred, anger, drugs, alcohol, sexual lusts, and all sorts of abominations. But, "blessed be the LORD, who has made an escape for our souls as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; for the snare is broken and we have escaped” (v.7).
We are all just one bad decision away from destruction. But thank God for His Son, who through His sacrificial death on the cross made it possible for us to be, one good decision away from eternal life. For "our help is in the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.” Therefore, choose life - for there is power in the name of Jesus!
The Truth: "You shall ask anything in My name, I will do it, that the Father might be glorified in the Son.” (John 14:13)
