The word for today is - still !

Good morning,
The word for today is - still !

 

Be still and know that I am God!  Psalm 46:10. This does not say know God , but to know that He is God is significant because just knowing that He is God should instill peace in our hearts.  Also, knowing that He is God means that we also know that He is in control and that He loves us,and He extends His grace and mercy.  As Paul says, His grace is sufficient. Knowing that He is God, takes the pressure off of our shoulders to be in control and allows God to take over.  The word from God tells us, do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but it's the Lords'. You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, Read , 2 Chronicles 20. He does not want us to be intimidated by the terror tactics of the enemy. The word says for us to resist the devil, to raise the shield of faith. Don’t run, don’t hide, don’t cower in fear. Confront the enemy!  Position yourselves and stand still, does not mean, “Stand still and do nothing!” It means don’t worry, don’t fret, just put your trust in the Lord. Walk with your head up. The word tells us to set your mind on the things that are above, not on things on the earth. Thank you God for your word. Amen !
