Psalms 62:8 (NIV)
8 Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. Selah
The word Selah appears many times in the book of Psalms. I spent the early part of my relationship with God reading over words like this that I didn't understand. Doing this, however, robbed me of some great thought.
The word Selah means: to stop and ponder. Psalms were kind of the first formal praise and worship songs. They would be recited with instruments. People would sing, hum, do the na na na's, but when the word Selah would be said people would be silent and think about what they just heard.
Today, I would challenge you to read verse eight again and then stop everything and think about the words inspired through David.
Heart and Soul,
BAG
