God Save the King

When you are in trouble, who do you call for help? Who or what do you trust to be at your side when you need them?  This morning’s service points us to a single, heavenly answer to these perennial questions. Various Scripture readings remind us that “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:13), that our Lord is “our help and our shield” (Psalm 33:20), and that our “help comes from the Lord” (Psalm 121:2). We acknowledge that “the king is not saved by his great army” and “The war horse is a false hope for salvation” (Psalm 33:16-17), prompting us to confess that it is “better far to trust the Lord than on man’s help rely” (O Thank The Lord For He Is Good—Psalm 118). We ask the Lord to “listen to [our] plea for grace” (Turn Your Ear And Answer—Psalm 86), and to “hear [our] cry, hear [our] call” (Precious Lord, Take My Hand), trusting that the God who has been “our help in ages past” shall also be “our hope for years to come” (O God, Our Help In Ages Past—Psalm 90). Though the “help of man is vain,” we trust that “with God we shall do valiantly” (O God, You Have Rejected Us—Psalm 60). He is faithful to “answer whenever we call” (The Lord Ever Hear You—Psalm 20). —Henry C. Haffner
