Moses wrote this psalm while leading Israel through the wilderness, reminding them that even though they lived in tents and had no permanent home, God Himself was their true dwelling place. He taught that in God, believers find comfort, safety, stability, and rest, no matter how uncertain or weary life becomes. The sermon ends by urging people to take refuge in God now, for without Him, the soul has no home—only emptiness and damnation ahead.
A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on October 14, 1855.
