Thought for the Week: Deut 32

Praise God for Being Our Rock

With the covenant reestablished
and the nation poised at Jordan
River, Moses completes his
duties as leader of God’s people
by commissioning Joshua as his
successor with a sober warning.
To help the people remember
his message of life, Moses
records his final words as a song.

Lord, we proclaim You’re Our Rock:
Then Moses spoke in the hearing
of all the assembly of Israel
the words of this song (Deut 31:30)
Hear O earth words of my mouth
for I proclaim the name of the Lord:
Ascribe greatness to our God.
He is the Rock. His work is
perfect; and all his ways are just.
A faithful God who does no wrong,
upright and just is He (Dt 32:1-4).
Is He not your Father, who
bought you? Has He not made
you and established you? (v6).
He kept (you) as the apple
of His eye (Deut 32:10).

Lord, I lift my eyes to You, my solid
rock, my refuge and my salvation.
Help quieten my heart to wait on U
in the storm for my hope is in You.
Let my confidence not be shaken
by what circumstances may say
or my mind may think. Thank You
that my confidence rests on You,
the One who is the Rock and that
You can never be shaken. Amen.

Lord, Thank You for providing
stability and for being our rock,
and the God of our salvation.
Lord, we enter each day with the
intention to trust in You. Yet when
the winds blow & the waves rise,
we may forget looking at You.
Lord, as my rock be my stability
when things are not quite stable.
Help me focus on You; for Lord
You are unshakable and You are
my solid rock. In His name, Amen.

Father God, You are my solid Rock,
that cannot be shaken, my safe
refuge & shelter from storms of life.
Lord Jesus, You are my Rock; and
because U overcome, I’ll overcome
as You are for me and You are the
same yesterday, today, and forever.
Spirit, help me remember to find
security in the Father and the Son,
who are my Rock & sure foundation.
And I place my future into Yr Hands
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
