2 Samuel 22:2-3 The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior.
When Jesus entered the city of Jerusalem riding on a donkey, the people shouted their praises, "Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!" (Luke 19:38). They were praising God for giving them someone who, they thought, would be their king - a man who would become ruler of Israel. They had the wrong idea.
Jesus came not to overthrow the government, but to overthrow the powers of hell and their ruler. He came to rule in people's hearts. He came to be a cornerstone on which the church would build its faith - He came to be the rock of our salvation.
Blessed be the rock of our salvation! This mighty rock provides a solid place on which to build our faith as we read the Scriptures and learn more about Him every day. His great love saved us - giving us victory over anger, doubt, fear, and death because He is on our side. For that, He is worthy of our parise.
Blessed be the rock!
