“I called upon the LORD in distress: The LORD answered me, and set me in a large place. The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: What can man do unto me? It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in princes.”
Psalm 118:5-6, 8-9 KJV
David, tradition says, wrote this psalm, “Out of my deep anguish and pain I prayed, and God, You helped me as a Father. You came to my rescue and broke open the way into a beautiful and broad place. Now I know, Lord, that You are for me, and I will never fear what man can do to me. Lord, it is so much better to trust in You to save me than to put my confidence in someone else. Yes, it is so much better to trust in the Lord to save me than to put my confidence in celebrities.” This was likely sung by Jesus after the Passover supper with His disciples, before making His way to Gethsemane and Calvary. No human intelligence or even artificial intelligence can help mankind as the Holy Spirit, our Helper, given to us who believe in the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and whose sins are forgiven by the sacrifice of the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. The Lord is our Helper, we will not fear, what can man do to us. Amen!
