Psalms 108:12
Give us aid against the enemy, for human help is worthless.
Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Wed, May 18, WORTHLESS (Ps. 108:12). David knew well that as a sheep, he has to depend on the shepherd. How can a sheep ask help from the other sheep? A sheep is the weakest animal. It has nothing to protect himself. How can an animal which can’t protect itself but can protect other animal?
1. Forceless, weak.
A sheep has many points with itself in which it has to deal with. It is forgetful. Therefore, it is easily astray. It is short sighted. It can’t see far. It can’t run. Can’t jump. It is just able to walk. Eat. Mate and dead.
2. Fat.
Usually, a sheep is fat. It is really tempting for the other predators. It is really dangerous if it is in the open space. The other predators really like to eat it. It becomes an easy prey. It becomes the best gift for them. Don’t have to run far, difficult chase, tiresome energy.
3. Fight not.
It can not fight back. If a predator eats it, it is just surrender. It is just quickly dead. Yes, God created it as food, not for the other purpose. It can’t be used for transport or going to war. It can’t be used to plow fields. It is just best for food. Its milk and meat are perfect for food. The skin is also good for clothes. That’s it. So, let’s depend on God. ASH.
