Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 2. I will say of the Lord ] This is my experience: "He is my fortress, and in him will I continually trust."
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - He that by faith chooses God for his protector, shall find all in his that he needs or can desire. And those who have found the comfort of making the Lord their refuge, cannot but desire that others may do so The spiritual life is protected by Divine grace from the temptations of Satan, which are as the snares of the fowler, and from the contagion of sin, which is a noisome pestilence. Great security is promised to believers in the midst of danger. Wisdom shall keep them from being afraid without cause, and faith shall keep them from being undul afraid. Whatever is done, our heavenly Father's will is done; and we have no reason to fear. God's people shall see, not only God's promise fulfilled, but his threatenings. Then let sinners come unto the Lor upon his mercy-seat, through the Redeemer's name; and encourage other to trust in him also.
