S – I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. ² He alone is my rock and my salvation, 

my stronghold; I will never be shaken

Psalms 62:1–2 CSB

O – Commentary: 

The theme of this psalm is stressed in verse 1 when David wrote that he waited in silence for God. My soul finds rest in God alone (cf. v. 5) is literally, “Only to God is my soul silence.” Only to God did he look with complete calmness. He knew that since God was his Rock (cf. comments on 18:2), Salvation, and Fortress (cf. comments on 46:7), he could not be shaken (cf. 62:6 and comments on 15:5). As warriors used to feel at ease in an impregnable fortress, so David rested in the Lord.

A – We all need rest.  Physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually – we need a place where we can refresh and recuperate from the busyness of our lives.  God is that stronghold.  That inaccessible place of sins, cares and worry. 

R – Heavenly Father, we surrender to You today.  We surrender all that is in our lives, our cares and ask for forgiveness for our sins.  We invite Your Holy Spirit to give us a fresh anointing for today.  Let us be renewed in Your presence.
