Psalm 62

A reminder: This month, we are using our do-it-yourself method for reading the Psalms. Each day, after the reading, I’ll ask you to reflect on two questions:What things in this Psalm can I relate to?Is there anything in the Psalm that makes me think of Jesus?But don’t worry if you can’t always think of something – just read, reflect and pray.For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.1 In God alone my soul finds rest;my salvation comes from Him.2 He alone is my rock and my salvation.He is my fortress;I will never be shaken.3 How long will you threaten a man?Will all of you throw him downlike a leaning wallor a tottering fence?4 They fully intend to cast him down from his lofty perch;they delight in lies;with their mouths they bless,but inwardly they curse.Selah5 Rest in God alone, O my soul,for my hope comes from Him.6 He alone is my rock and my salvation;He is my fortress; I will not be shaken.7 My salvation and my honor rest on God, my strong rock;my refuge is in God.8 Trust in Him at all times, O people;pour out your hearts before Him.God is our refuge.Selah9 Lowborn men are but a vapor,the exalted but a lie.Weighed on the scale, they go up;together they are but a vapor.10 Place no trust in extortion,or false hope in stolen goods.If your riches increase,do not set your heart upon them.11 God has spoken once;I have heard this twice:that power belongs to God,12 and loving devotion to You, O Lord.For You will repay each manaccording to his deeds.REFLECTIONSNow think about the two questions:What things in this Psalm can I relate to?Is there anything in the Psalm that makes me think of Jesus?Then pray, seeking to delight in God or to depend on God.
