Psalms 12:1 KJV
To the chief Musician upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David. Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.
The Psalmist cries out the word that ought to be on the lips of every believer, "Help Lord." David's phrase is "for the godly man ceaseth" but we could plug in any of a thousand reasons we need the Lord's help.
"Help Lord" ought to be the immediate cry of the parent who longs to see their children grow to be godly, responsible and decent members of society.
How could we ever expect to raise our children to enter this world of sin and do the godly thing unless the Lord helps?
"Help Lord" should be the first thought as we step out of our homes to enter the world that surrounds us.
We need His help to keep us from evil. We also need His help that we might be salt and light in the world.
"Help Lord" must be on our hearts as we undertake whatever ministry God has given us in His church.
That we could serve eternal things in the strength of a temporal life is out of the question. God must be our help or else our ministry is just so much busy work. Help Lord.
