Psalm 121:8
"The Lord shall preserve thy going out
and thy coming in from this forth
and even for evermore"
When we go out in the morning to work and come home at the end of the day to rest, God shall keep us. When we go out in youth to begin life, and come back in at the end to die, we shall experience the same keeping. Our exits and our entrances are under one protection. The phrase " Jehovah shall keep," is spoken three times as if the sacred Trinity had sealed the word to make it sure. Ought not all our fears to be slain by such a threefold flight of arrows? What can destroy this triple promise? This keeping is eternal, continuing from this time forth, even for evermore.
The whole church is assured of everlasting security. The final perseverance of the saints is ensured, and the glorious immortality of believers is guaranteed. None are so safe as those whom God keeps; now so much in danger as the self secure. God will keep the door when it open and closes, and this he will continue to do so long as there is left a single man that trust in him, as long as danger is around, and in fact as long as time endures. Glory be to our living God. As the world builds in conflict, we sense our growing weakness, and it makes us feel more the need to be kept by our God. Let us all pray this prayer: " God keep me safe from harm and sin and thy Spirit keep me; The Lord watch over my going out and coming in for evermore
Amen!!
