This Sunday the Living Psalm is Psalm 46 1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, 3 though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. 4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. 5 God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day. revealed 6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. 7 The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. 8 Come and see what the Lord has done, the desolations he has brought on the earth. 9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire. 10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” 11 The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. The Psalm speaks strongly to those who feel that their world is crashing down around them (Verses 2, 3) and who are looking for some type of refuge (Verses 4, 5). Haven’t we been in that situation… or are at the moment? Be still and feel the confidence the Psalmist has in God. He is more than a certain place of refuge. He is with us wherever we are. That is the confidence He gives us. He is a Fortress which surrounds us. He set around us a wall of angels, a wall of forgiveness and a wall of love as we’ll hear in the message. Be still/ take that to heart/ stop your worry: this is our God!
