MY ROCK AND SALVATION

 MY ROCK AND SALVATION

Ps. 62:1-2 I wait quietly before God, for my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will never be shaken. NLT

When was the last time you waited quietly before God? If you are honest, it's probably been a while. Most of our lifestyles do not lend themselves to alone time with God, let alone quiet time. We are so wrapped up in our living that we forget how to really live. The soul needs quiet time alone with God. We need to make alone time a priority on our daily agenda. If we don't have the time, then we must make the time by letting something else go. We will never know true peace and victory in Jesus without time alone with Him. Quiet time means we shut out all other distractions. It means we consider this time of our day more important than everything else.

We wait quietly before the Lord because our salvation comes from Him. He is our only hope. He is our eternal life. He is the anchor of our lives and holds us steady. He is our fortress and He alone is able to protect us from all that would threaten our souls. He alone is the one who can guide us along the path of righteousness. He alone has the authority and purity of heart to rightly judge our souls. He alone has the power to create life and the authority to take it away. He alone is the one whom every knee will bow and confess that He is the King of kings and Lord of lords.

God is our rock. He is solid through and through and withstands whatever storms may come His way. He is unfazed by the things that faze us. He is steadfast and is not moved by the things that move us. When we are anchored to the Rock, we are safe; we will not lose our grip and fall under the pressures of life’s storms.

If you do not have a regular time in your day to set aside to be quiet before our Lord, today is the day that you can do something about it. Today is the first day of the rest of your life and there is no better way to start a new way of living than to set aside a quiet time to be with the Lord. Wait quietly before Him and you will be amazed by how much better your life will be.
