The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me? The Lord is on my side as my helper; I will look in triumph on those who hate me. (Psalm 118:6,7)
… he has said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.” So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?” (Hebrews 13:5,6)
Abraham looked forward – the look of faith (Hebrews 11:10): Lot’s wife looked back – the look of unbelief (Genesis 19:26): Peter looked around – the look of fear (Matthew 14:30). We should look up – to where the Lord Jesus is seated at the right hand of the majesty on high – the look of trust!
“Turn, your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in his wonderful face …” (Helen Lemmel)
