When my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. Psalm 61:1-2 KJV

SCRIPTURE:

Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.  From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.  Psalm 61:1-2  KJV

COMMENT:

As a young Christian, I didn’t understand what was meant when Jesus was referred to as a “Rock”.  However, through studies and my personal relationship with Him, I began to realize that this referenced Him as a solid foundation.  He is a strong substance on which to build.  An impenetrable fortress in which to hide.  Once you have built on something as strong, sure and reliable as the word of God, you can withstand any storm, any trial or anything that desires to shake your very core.  Not only will He allow you to stand ON Him, He will further invite you to stand IN Him!  Think about the song lyrics “Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee.”  Imagine, when we are so overwhelmed, afraid, worried, lost, hurt or under attack, our God, our Protector, our Rock would actually carve a cleft in Himself, and allow us to slide right into that perfect hiding place and be protected from all assaults!  The Rock of our Salvation will not only protect us in the moment, He will save us for all eternity, if we simply ask and believe.  Praise be the name of the Lord!

OUR PRAYER FOR THIS WEEK:

Father God, In the name of Jesus, we thank You for being our hiding place.  We bless You for being our strength and solid foundation.  We love You for lifting us out of the miry pit and placing our feet on the solid ground that is You.  Continue to keep us in your precious care.  In Jesus’ name we pray.  Amen.
