Psa 62:2 He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved. Psa 62:6 He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.
These two verses are almost identical. So close you may not have noticed the difference. In verse two, David says, “I shall not be GREATLY moved, and in verse six he says, “I shall not be moved.” So, in a very short space of time David went from “I will not be moved very much, maybe a little but not a lot” to “I shall not be moved at all.” I’m going to stand right here and with my dying breath ask for “the old paths wherein is the good way.”
There’s another great truth in both of these verses: David says, “He only is my rock and my salvation, he is my defence.” There is not another hope. There is not another rock that we can anchor our souls to. There is not another savior. There is not another defender that can come to our rescue. He (Jehovah God, who became Jesus Christ) He ONLY is MY rock, MY salvation, MY defender.
Trouble comes to every life. Have you ever wondered what God is doing when we are going through some great trial, some terrible hardship? Have you ever wondered where is God when I need Him? Sometimes it seems life just falls apart. We’re hit with a debilitating disease, we’re bankrupt, my family just disowned me, my sins have been exposed. Nobody loves me. Nobody cares if I live or die. Where is God now, and what is He doing? When we are down for the count, Jesus steps into the ring and takes over.
He is our defence! Exo 14:14 says, “The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.” His job is to fight. Our job is to pray, trust and wait. Exo_14:13 “…….Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day:…..”
