What does the Bible say about being held up by God?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes the importance of relying on God's strength to be held up and safe from falling into sin.

Psalm 119:117 states, 'Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe.' This prayer by David reflects a deep understanding that he needs God's sustaining power to maintain his spiritual safety. Throughout Scripture, we observe that both David and other biblical figures, like the Apostle Peter, recognized their vulnerabilities. Without God's help, we are prone to fail and sin. The Lord's support is crucial for our perseverance in faith and obedience to His statutes, highlighting our dependence on His grace.
