Listen "Look to the Lord"
Episode Synopsis
I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is the 29th of June, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. I am sitting, looking into the most beautiful picture, the mighty Drakensberg Mountains, which run on the western side of our beloved South Africa and Kwazulu-Natal. There is only one Scripture that comes to mind that I want to share with you today, and it is found in Psalm 121:1-2:“I to the hills will lift my eyes —From whence comes my help?My help comes from the Lord,Who made heaven and earth.”Now, I quoted that Scripture on purpose because if we don’t think very carefully about it, it looks like we are saying our strength and our health come from the mountains, but they don’t come from the mountains. They come from the One who made the mountains, namely our beloved God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. You see, the Scripture goes like this:I to the hills will lift mine eyes?Where does my help come from?My help cometh from the LordWho made heaven and earthI want to ask you a question this morning, because I have time to meditate, looking at these beautiful blue mountains, partially covered in cloud. Where are you putting your strength? Where are you putting your hope? Is it in the government? Is it in the weather? Is it in the economic situation? Is it in your own physical wellbeing? If it is, you are going to be sorely disappointed in the future. Our hope comes from God alone. The Bible says, “If God is for us, no man will stand against us.” Romans 8:31. Today, looking at these majestic mountains that were formed with one word - that’s what He said - I know again that my strength and my help comes from the One who created those beautiful mountains. Today, remember, keep your eyes fixed on Jesus Christ and not even on the mountains!God bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.
