Psalm 70- Help

When your against the ropes, when its a knife to your throat moment or your backs against a corner sometimes all you can squeeze out is a simple yet summarizing "HELP". When you get a sucker-punck, are blindsided, or hit unexpectedly and the panic flushes through your body your knee-jerk reaction is going to be to seek help. Where are you going to turn to make your plea for help? Will you ask the Lord to come quickly to your aid or will you just try to handle it yourself? Will you see that every situation can be used to exalt God, especially in your weakest moments because then it is obvious to all the God enabled you and rescued you? The quicker you admit you are poor and needy the quicker you can ask for help.
Psalm 70 Questions -
1. How do your react when chaos erupts? Do you keep cool, shut down, ask for help, or freak out?
2. Do you ask God for help or do you just expect Him to intervene?
3. Do you train your kids to ask for help or do you just step in when you see them struggling?
4. Do you exalt God for all he's done for you? How is he exalted at home, at work, at church, at family gatherings, at parties, in your neighborhood?
5. Do you recognize you are poor and needy? Do you see others that way? HOw can you be used to help and deliver others?
