Be still and know God

Today’s Manna in the Word:
Be still and know God…

It seems we are encouraged to “go and do” all of the time.

We are told: “If it is going to be it is up to me.”

The God of the Bible has a different view on this: trust God.

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” (‭‭‭Psalms‬ ‭46‬‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

One translation says: stop striving.

Where have we put our trust?
In ourselves? We are limited.
In others? They are limited.
In the “universe”? It is made by the God of the Bible.

We can put our trust in the God of the Bible and cease from our struggling, striving, our attempts to make things happen.

We can be still and know the God of the Bible has this … everything we need is met in Jesus Christ.

Hebrews 4:11 tells us to be diligent to enter God’s rest, His peace.

Be still, no stress, no anxiety, and know God.

Amen?
