He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.Psalm 62:2
There are five things mentioned in this Psalm concerning God's relationship to His people.
1) God only is my Salvation. This word "ONLY" is a very powerful word. It reveals if we understand the gospel or not. It reveals if we believe God or not. If we add any thing to this word, we pervert the only gospel that is of God.
2) God is our Rock. (Verse 2) Christ, who is God Incarnate, is the Rock on which the church is built. He is the sure Foundation. 1Cor 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
3) God is our Defence (Verses 2, 6) He is a wall around us. God Himself is our protection. Psalm 121: 5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
4) God is our Refuge. (Verse 7) He is our shelter in the time of storm. A shelter must be a safe place from all danger and truly the Godman Christ Jesus is our hiding place. Isaiah 32:2 And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
God is our Glory. (Verses 7, 8) The glory of every believer is Jesus Christ Himself. I John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. Psalm 3:3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
