Psalm 62

For God alone my soul waits in

silence; from him comes my salvation.

He alone is my rock and

my salvation, my fortress;

I shall not be greatly shaken.

How long will all of you attack a man

to batter him, like a leaning wall, a

tottering fence?

They only plan to thrust him down

from his high position.

They take pleasure in falsehood.They bless with their mouths, but

inwardly they curse. Selah

For God alone, O my soul, wait in

silence, for my hope is from him.

He only is my rock and my salvation,

my fortress; I shall not be shaken.

On God rests my salvation and my

glory; my mighty rock,

my refuge is God.

Trust in him at all times, O people;

pour out your heart before him;

God is a refuge for us. Selah

Building the Kingdom of GodOur readiness to perform our task becomes critical when we realize the

world also has a missionto capture and assimilate the church. If the

church becomes an echo of the world, the mission of the world

is accomplished.

It is our task to build the city of God. It is supremely costly and

extraordinarily dangerous. He who will work to build the kingdom of

God must be on guard against arrows that are directed at his facebutperhaps even more on guard for the arrows directed at his back.

Nehemiahs work provoked hostile reactions from some of the pagans.

But the real threat was grounded in the fears of Gods people. When a

leader like Nehemiah, Paul, or Jesus Himself provokes a hostile

reaction from enemies, the people are prone to turn on them as they

bear the fallout from such attacks. Remember, it was the people who

feared the wrath of Rome who turned their wrath on Jesus.

True leaders of the Christian faith, however, love believers and pagans

alike and risk the hostility of both to build the kingdom of God.
