Word from God’s Word-Still

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Word from God’s Word is Still.

To be still means that we stop striving on our own strength and find our rest in the Lord. His presence gives us peace. His love gives us joy. His sure promises give us hope.

Being still helps us to cope with the chaos of life. We are less fearful and less prone to go into panic mode. We are more likely to trust God.

Psalm 37:7 says, “Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.”  Time spent with God reminds us that He reigns on the throne, and that no one will take away His power or authority.

In Psalm 46:10, He says, “Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
