Who Is Your Rock?
HE ONLY is my rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be greatly moved. Psalm 62:2 KJV
If you are trying to be a rock on your own, WATCH OUT! The forecast is calling for rough winds throughout the next century or at least until Jesus returns.
I use several versions of the Bible, but for this verse I particularly like the King James Version. It says when God is my rock and my salvation, my defense, I shall not be greatly moved. Now, notice carefully, the Psalmist does not say he WILL not be moved, he says I shall not be moved greatly.
Now I don't know about you. Maybe you are much more righteous than I and you �never� experience movement in your Christian walk. You simply trust Him every day. The winds and trials of life don't sway you from your solid faith. There is no doubt in your heart.
But for me, I move. No, I don't want to move. I want constant, powerful, unmovable faith. But sometimes I waver a bit.
Thankfully though, I have found from steady experience that if I will grow in my relationship with Him, if I will consistently seek to make Him Lord of my life, the winds keep coming, but they have far less effect on me.
When I allow Him to be the rock, instead of me trying to be, I find I am much more powerful to meet the storms of life.
