Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe:

A homely Friday morning devotional for Milward House Pilgrim Home, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England.

The psalmist prayer to be upheld is one all of the Lord's people need to pray.
By way of introduction we see in these eight verses 5 reasons why the Psalmist felt the need to pray in this way.

We then consider:
1/ His prayer - "Hold thou me up". There are 7 occasions to fall that are identified in these eight verses.
2/ The safety of those held by the Lord - "I shall be safe"
3/ The proof and effect of the Lord's upholding - "respect unto thy statutes continually" (A deep admiration for the word of God.)
