Christ, Our Rock

He only is my rock and my salvation, My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.

Psalm 62:2

Christians have a foundation. The Lord Jesus Christ is our strong protector in the midst of the storm. Though trials may come and though heartache is inevitable, we rest on the truth of the promises of God.

Christ is our rock. He is our strong foundation, our help in the time of need. He saves us, secures us, and leads us to Himself day by day. He is the Rock upon which stand on this day and every day.

Christ is our salvation. He is our only rock and salvation. Christ lived for our righteousness, died to pay our sin debt, and was resurrected for our justification. Through salvation, our sins are removed and we are also given the righteousness of Christ. He is our one and only Savior.

Christ is our stronghold. We run to Him in the time of trouble. We rest in Him when the enemies surround us. He is our great fortress indeed! 

That is not to say that life is perfect. We will have trouble in this world and pain is ever present.  It is to say that our soul is secure, God’s promises are true, and Heaven is assured no matter how and when the enemy comes against us.

Because of these things I will not be shaken. I may stumble and I may fall. But, when that happens, I will not stay down. I will get up, get back on the path, and keep seeking to know Christ each day. What about you, dear Christian?
