When reading that verse what do you feel?
I can say that I feel peace. Do you feel peace?
You should… That verse says it all.
Be Still and know that I am God. Wow!
Knowing that God is in control at all times, that no matter what, He has our back, and this is a “gift” from high above.
In this present time of turmoil throughout the world, have courage and don’t fear, God is in control.
NO matter what’s brewing, or has transpired near or far…God is in control!
Sometimes, we can get ahead of ourselves without consulting the “One” that knows all, is in control, and wants the absolute best for His children.
When we go forth without placing Him first in all we do life can get complicated and can get out of control really quickly.
For some, it might take a little longer, but there is one thing that is for certain, when we leave God out of the equation, things are vapid and subject to evaporation. That is to say, the things of earth aren’t lasting, they’re fleeting and will rust and decay. This includes our flesh bodies.
Our beautiful spiritual bodies are the ones that last for eternity…IF we adhere to His Word and lead a life that aligns with His will. Our spiritual bodies are forever, and through Christ we are granted this mind boggling and beyond explanation gift of love.
It’s hard at times to stay focused on the Word when undergoing stressful situations. We’re human and inasmuch, liable to find it difficult to concentrate if we’re in pain physically or emotionally.
But that’s when we need to celebrate His love for us and praise Him no matter the circumstances. We need to absorb the verse “Be still and know that I am God” and realize He is in control.
He sees what we’re going through. In fact, He knows what we’ll be going through before we are going through it.
He feels our pain. He sees our tears and knows how many teardrops fall from our eyes.
He hears our prayers and knows our hearts.
He wants what’s best for all of us.
And, when our hearts break…His breaks also.
When we open our hearts to our loving Father God, we’re under the umbrella of protection, no matter what.
We might not feel it sometimes, but we’re under His protection, and living in His love of generosity constantly...IF we let Him in…and surrender to His almighty Sovereign ways.
Today, listen for His voice.
Stop and realize that He is with you always, no matter what.
He’s waiting for you to call out to Him, and trust Him no matter what.
Speak to Him from your heart. He knows each beat it takes and knows how many beats it has left.
He knows how many hairs are on your head.
He knows your thoughts and desires.
He knows what’s best for you.
He knows what tomorrow and the next day will bring your way. And, through it all, He loves you unconditionally.
That’s quite impressive wouldn’t you say?
Remember...”Be still and know He is God…”
