Psalm 124 - God Can Deliver You

The author of Psalm 124 was David, possibly written after the defeat of the Philistines, found in  2 Samuel 5:17-25.  He shares with us that God can deliver us from those who seek to destroy us.

Psalm 124:7,8 - "We have escaped like a bird out of the fowler's snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped. 8-Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth"

Do you ever feel trapped by overwhelming odds? With God, there is always a way out because he is the Creator of all that exists. No problem is beyond his ability  to solve; nor circumstance is too difficult for him. We can turn to the Creator for help in our time of need, for he is on our side.  God will provide a way out, we need only trust him and look for it. David compared this to a bird escaping the fowler's snare.

Psalm 124 / New International Version

¹ If the Lord had not been on our side—
    let Israel say—
² if the Lord had not been on our side
    when men attacked us,
³ when their anger flared against us,
    they would of swallowed us alive;
⁴ the flood would have engulfed us,
    the torrent would have swept over us,
⁵ the raging waters
    would have swept us away.

⁶ Praise be to the Lord,
    who has not let us be torn by their teeth.
⁷ We have escaped like a bird
    from the fowler’s snare;
the snare has been broken,
    and we have escaped.
⁸ Our help is in the name of the Lord,
    the Maker of heaven and earth.
