Unless
The LORD Protects A City,
Guarding It With Sentries Will Do No Good.

Scripture

Psalms 127

1b … Unless the Lord protects a city,
    guarding it with sentries will do no good.

Observation

Do you believe this? Wouldn’t it be great if our leadership in Washington believed this?

Safe?

I would feel a lot safer if our leadership in Washington was crying out to God for God to save us instead of depending on our military strength.

Some nations boast of their chariots and horses,
    but we boast in the name of the Lord our God.
⁸ Those nations will fall down and collapse,
    but we will rise up and stand firm. Psalm 20:7-8

What sorrow awaits those who look to Egypt for help, trusting their horses, chariots, and charioteers and depending on the strength of human armies instead of looking to the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. Isaiah 31:1

 Application

I will pray for our President and those in leadership that God gives them wisdom in these difficult days.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I pray for our country and those who lead us. Give them wisdom to lead us. Show them that they cannot depend on human strength to keep our country safe and to keep us free. Unless You protect a city, or a nation, guarding it with sentries will do no good. (Psalm 127:1b)
