A PLACE OF SAFETY
God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. PSALM 46:1
How comforting is that thought! Martin Luther, in the Reformation, used this psalm in his hymn, A Mighty Fortress is Our God. It was an encouragement to him in the social upheaval of his day.
When you think of the coming crises in the future or even the ones you are facing now, remember that no matter what happens, God will be present—this is the incredible privilege we have as Christians! He is our refuge and strength and presence in our troubles. He will help you!
Has God made Himself known to you in your troubles? By faith, we can trust Him and watch as He acts on our behalf. We don’t need to fear!
From Fairest Lord Jesus, Psalms 45-46
About this Plan
"Be still, and know that I am God;" (PSALM 46:10a). Many Christians are familiar with this verse, but do we really understand it? This exhortation applies when we are distracted by our successes, as when we are fearful and disquieted by some troublesome news. We need to learn to quiet ourselves by opening God’s Word and gaining His perspective in both cases.
