He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber

Emergency 24/7

During Thanksgiving weekend, 2013, our kitchen sink became clogged. There was nothing we could do to get it to drain. It was late Saturday evening, after Thanksgiving. I searched the phone book for a plumber. “Emergency Service,” one add said in the Yellow Pages, “24/7.” I gave the man a call. He was in South Carolina! I asked about the “emergency” part. He said, “No, not during a holiday.” Oh. So much for an emergency!

We ended up calling a nationally-recognized franchise and paid over $400 for an hour’s worth of work!

“We’ll serve you in an emergency, 24/7.” Except holidays. Except weekends. Except days ending in “y.” Such is the nature of human promises.

In complete contrast to the nature of God. “He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber” (Psalm 121:3). Again, in verse 4, “Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.”

Psalm 121 is about calling on God for help. Verse 2: “My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.” God is powerful to help.

Verse 8: “The Lord will guard your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forever.” God is gracious to help.

God is never on vacation. God never leaves for a holiday. God is never too busy – even if all 7+ billion people were to call on God at the same time, God could answer every single prayer. He never sleeps and He never slumbers.

God is available 24/7 – even on holidays.
