Mazmur 46

Bible Verse -

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

Psalms 46:10 NIV


In life, it seems there is always so much that needs to be done and it is tempting to want to be active and get on and do it. But the Lord encourages you to ‘Be still, and know that I am God’ (Psalm 46:10). If you take time to be still and to listen to him, you see in this psalm some of the blessings that come from knowing his presence with you.


Peace

‘God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear’ 


Joy

‘There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God’. Jesus spoke of the Holy Spirit bringing ‘streams of living water’. This river is now not in a physical city but in your heart.


Security

‘God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day’.


Protection

‘The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress’. ‘God fights for us’ and ‘protects us’.


Lord, today I want to ‘Be still, and know that [you are] God’. I bring to you my fears, worries and anxieties. Thank you that I can trust you. Thank you for your presence and the peace, joy, security and protection you bring.
