Psalm 46 - “Be Still, and Know that I Am God”

Watch that you don’t reach a point where you expect nothing from God anymore. Disappointment, fear, discouragement can push you to the very limit. When life gets hard, remember that God does not expect you to stay in this state: there is a future, and there is hope for those you seek God and persevere in their faith. Who is God to you? What do you think He is capable of? Meditate on this Psalm to remind yourself of His power, and His love for us all. 

Psalm 146

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.

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.
