Psalm 62

God alone.  God only.

God alone and God only is the psalmist's sure, steady rock and fortress. He will wait on God "in silence", so confident is he in God's word that no begging or pleading to be done.  There is no scrambling to try to please Him as the pagan worshipers do for their false gods.  No, he will wait....confident that God is true, and he will not be moved.

Enemies will still come at him.  They are two-faced......speaking one thing and doing another.  Thy are full of deceit.

But God alone, God only, is whom the psalmist turn to and relies upon for help.

Trust Him!  Pour out your heart to Him!  He is a refuge for you!

All are equally dependent on Him.....the poor, the rich.....all measure equally in their lack of real significance apart from God.

All of the plans of man for success will fail:  oppression, robbery, wealth, etc.  Don't put your hope in these things.

It is a very sure thing:  God alone has power to save us.

Again,  He sees.  He hears.  And He will render to each according to his work.
