A ROCK SOLID REFUGE

PSALM 61

7:52 PM

"From the ends of the earth I call to You," 

No matter who it is or where they are,

God is listening to the ones who cry out and call to Him.

 

No matter how far away we may go and how weak we become, God will still hear the prayer of those who call on Him.

 

He will rescue them and lead them into

a rock solid refuge of protection and strength.

 

"Refuge" may be a rock, tower, tent, wings, a garden, or a valley, but it the place where God answers prayer and provides grace, goodness, and glory

 

"for those who fear Your Name."

v.5

"The fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure."

Is. 32.17

 

The promise awakens hope and desire to find this place of Your presence, in the glory of Your love and faithfulness. 

 

Here is found joy, singing, praise of God's Name, His love and faithfulness.

 

In our place of refuge we can obtain wisdom and power to proclaim and teach others of the love and faithfulness of the God of all glory.

 

This prayer is not only for God's help for our lives.

 

It is also our prayer for wisdom and power to proclaim and teach others about this place of grace to help in their time of hardship and difficulty.

 

In our prayer for others, we can seek the wisdom and power they need to know about for faith to believe and trust God's mercy and grace to them.

 

The great fear is that any of us

would be found to have fallen short of the promise

of entering His rest

that still stands.

Hebrews 4.1
