Psalm 46:10 [ Be still!! ]
Psalm 46:10 [ Be still!! ]
Be still!!
Psalm 46:10
Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth
The instruction to be still in Hebrew means :
– to let go
– to stop striving
– to slacken
– to let drop
Why should we be still?
A preacher once said if do not stop striving and remain still. God will take a seat and watch you struggle.
But when you are still. You take the seat and allow God to work on your behalf.
The verse above says, just stay calm, be still and God will exalt Himself in your life.
Scripture also says in Joshua 1:5 that
….. God will never leave us nor forsake us.
Let’s keep trusting Him
Philippians 4:6-7
Have no anxiety about anything…… and the peace of God which surpasses all u derstanding will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
This passage from the new testament also admonishes us to remain calm, not fret or worry but rather cast our burdens onto Jesus.
When we do this God will grant us peace even in chaos.
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Learn to cast all your burdens to Jesus through prayer.
