Psalm 46: Be still and Know our lord is God

God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging. The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress. He says, "Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth." The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress. (Psalm 46:1-3, 7, 10, 11 NIV)

This is such a good reminder to us. That in hard times. In struggles and even when it seems like the world is falling apart we can hold on to this: that our Lord is God, and that he will be exalted. He is victorious and yet he loves us. Our Lord is with us and he is for us. He is our mighty fortress though the world rage in him we will stand until death to live eternally with him. For there is no promise of health or wealth in this world. But we have an eternal imperishable inheritance in heaven!

Lord remind me of your love and your victory. Lord I am sorry I fear and put my hope in this world. Remind me that in you we have life eternal. Set our hopes on you and in heaven!
Amen
