Help From Heaven
Help From Heaven | October 16, 2025
A reassuring and powerful section of Scripture is found in Psalm 20, where King David's supporters sought help from heaven on his behalf as a battle was approaching. They sought protection and victory, expressing their assurance and trust in God's power over man-made ways and even weaponry. Perhaps you are facing a battle or know someone who is, remember there is no wiser and more successful recourse than trusting God.
Psalm 20 says,
"May the Lord answer you when you are in distress;
may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2 May he send you help from the sanctuary
and grant you support from Zion.
3 May he remember all your sacrifices
and accept your burnt offerings.
4 May he give you the desire of your heart
and make all your plans succeed.
5 May we shout for joy over your victory
and lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May the Lord grant all your requests.
6 Now this I know:
The Lord gives victory to his anointed.
He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary
with the victorious power of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8 They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.
9 Lord, give victory to the king!
Answer us when we call!
Amen
