Let’s continue working on defeating the lies we’ve been believing.
Do you remember the steps from the first blog (Truths to Hold On To)?
- Identify the lie the enemy fed you.
- Find the truths in God’s Word and what He has spoken to you.
- Speak or pray those truths out loud until you believe them and act in that belief.
- Rebuke the enemy.
- Thank God for anything and everything.
Today, let’s look at Psalm 62.
Psalm 62
1I wait quietly before God,
for my victory comes from him.
2He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will never be shaken.
3So many enemies against one man—
all of them trying to kill me.
To them I’m just a broken-down wall
or a tottering fence.
4They plan to topple me from my high position.
They delight in telling lies about me.
They praise me to my face
but curse me in their hearts.
Interlude
5Let all that I am wait quietly before God,
for my hope is in him.
6He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will not be shaken.
7My victory and honor come from God alone.
He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me.
8O my people, trust in him at all times.
Pour out your heart to him,
for God is our refuge.
Interlude
9Common people are as worthless as a puff of wind,
and the powerful are not what they appear to be.
If you weigh them on the scales,
together they are lighter than a breath of air.
10Don’t make your living by extortion
or put your hope in stealing.
And if your wealth increases,
don’t make it the center of your life.
11God has spoken plainly,
and I have heard it many times:
Power, O God, belongs to you;
12unfailing love, O Lord, is yours.
Surely you repay all people
according to what they have done.
Truth for today:
- He is my victory
- He alone is my rock and my salvation
- He is my fortress
- You are my hope
- My honor comes from You alone
- He is my refuge
- He is trustworthy
- He is all-powerful
- His love is unfailing
- He is just
What was your favorite part of this Scripture? Why? Where have you seen Him in your life as any of these things in the past? Please share with us.
I have seen His unfailing love in my life—moments where I hated Him, and He still pursued me. I would not have the same life today if He had not come to me even then. Thank you, Jesus. I have seen His victory over lies and idols and mindsets in my life. Thank you, Jesus. I have experienced His justice in my life through correction. Thank you, Jesus.
Don’t forget that remembering the things He has done in your life is an important way of boosting your faith. And it is also extremely highlighted in Scripture. Have a good week, everyone.
