“So that we confidently say, ‘The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What will man do to me?’” — Epistle to the Hebrews 13:6
The Lord God is the One who helps us. To those who trust in Him and live as people pleasing to Him, He becomes a shield of help and protection. Therefore, we can live boldly in this world. No human being can ultimately harm us beyond God’s sovereign will.
To understand today’s verse more clearly, we must read the preceding verse as well:
“Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, ‘I will never desert you, nor will I ever abandon you.’” — Epistle to the Hebrews 13:5
This promise echoes what God declared in:
“I will not fail you or forsake you.” — Book of Joshua 1:5
When we truly believe that He will never leave us nor forsake us, then we can confidently declare, “The Lord is my helper,” and live courageously in this world.
Yes, beloved, today people eagerly pursue wealth in many ways. The root cause is fear about the future. Many think that only by accumulating great wealth can they live peacefully tomorrow. This mindset gradually turns into the love of money. That is why Scripture instructs us to live free from the love of money and to be content with what we have.
Not everyone who has accumulated great riches remains joyful until the end. Likewise, those without wealth are not necessarily lacking joy. The joy that comes from Christ dwelling within us and guiding our lives is the supreme joy. If we neglect Christ and focus only on gathering wealth, we cannot experience this true joy. In fact, sorrow may eventually overtake such a life.
This does not mean that we should not earn or save. Rather, it means that instead of desiring wealth above all, we must recognize that gaining the Lord Jesus Christ is the greatest treasure. We must cultivate a deep longing to gain Him and strive earnestly for that pursuit.
With this passion, the apostle Paul declared:
“But whatever things were gain to me, these things I have counted as loss because of Christ. More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.” — Epistle to the Philippians 3:7–8
Without truly knowing Christ, all the riches we assume we possess amount to nothing of eternal value.
If we strive in this way and gain Christ in our lives, then we can boldly say, “The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What will man do to me?” This is the higher spiritual life. God regards prayers seeking this experience as noble prayers—and He answers them without delay.
