Ps 121:3-4
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth
thee will not slumber.4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber
nor sleep.
I heard a story of an old Irish woman. During the war, whenever
there was an air attack on the village, the defending soldiers would sound the
alarm and everyone would take shelter in the underground bunkers which were
created to protect the villagers from the air bomb strikes of the enemy jets. But on this day, she said
she wasn’t going to squeeze herself in that dirty smelly stuffy bunker. And she
insisted that she would sleep in her house. Well the villagers tried to
persuade her but she was reluctant. Then finally she walked into her house and
shut the door. Well that night, the enemy missiles rained like hailstorm and
everyone in the bunker feared for the life of the old woman. When they all came
out in the morning, they were all shocked by what they saw. Everyones house
exploded, except one house; The house of the old woman. When they asked her
what gave her confidence to stay, she said “I read my bible and I saw that God doesn’t
slumber. So I figured there was no use both of us staying awake.” And get what,
that was the last day of the war. And only one woman had her house. Hallelujah.
So friends, the word of God is dependable. You can bet your
life on it.
