Confidence in God — A Reflection of Psalm 62
The Bible is full of victory stories where God came through,
and worked great miracles for many people. The psalmist David is one of them.
David’s faith in God had advanced to an unshakable steadfastness, to the point
that David said, “Only God is my rock, my salvation, and my defense. I will
never be greatly shaken by attackers. My soul silently waits for God.” Every
single time… God proved Himself faithful on David’s behalf. Trusting anything
else was proven a vain hope. David goes on to encourage us to trust in God.
People, always put your trust in God! Tell Him all your
problems. God is our place of safety. (Psalm 62:8 ERV)
Don’t be moved by oppression, and do not trust in riches,
because God is the ultimate power and source. He renders to everyone what has
been sown. Our refuge is in God alone. Even when they’re not trying, sometimes
people will let you down. We need to learn to make God our source, for our help
comes from Him.
I must calm down and turn to God; only He can rescue me. (Psalm
62:1 ERV)
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,Let me hide myself in Thee;Let the water and the blood,From Thy riven side which flowed,Be of sin, the double cure,Save me from its guilt and power.
