Look To The Rock

Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. (Isaiah 51:1)

Each of us has someone on whom we can depend, someone who is our ROCK! But the simple truth is, at some point in time, our human rock will fail us. Our only solid rock is Jesus.

We are told in Exodus 17 that when Moses smote the rock and water came forth, the Hebrew children drank “of that spiritual rock.” The Psalmist understood that the Lord is our only rock: For who is God save the LORD? Or who is a rock save our God?

If we fully depend on Him, Isaiah tells us in chapter 51:1, “Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn . . .”

Did you hear that? We are hewn from THE ROCK! We are literally carved out of God Himself! I know of no other rock we need! Do you?

When I read this I was instantly reminded of the scripture, From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. He is my rock! Christ The Solid Rock on which I stand all other ground is sinking sand. Amen!

Have a wonderful day in The Lord!
