Psalm 46, HE is our refuge!

Psa 46:1, …God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.

JESUS is our refuge in times of trouble! HE is a fortress to those seeking shelter!

Psa 18:2, The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. 

Psa 46:2-3, THEREFORE WE WILL NOT FEAR, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. SELAH

The Psalmist considered the scariest situation and thought, “THE LORD IS STILL GREATER THAN MY WORST FEARS, WHY BE AFRAID”!

Psa 46:4, THERE IS A RIVER WHOSE STREAMS SHALL MAKE GLAD THE CITY OF GOD, THE HOLY PLACE OF THE TABERNACLE OF THE MOST HIGH. 

The city of GOD is a desert, but in the future, there will be a life-giving river flowing from the throne of GOD!

Rev 22:1, And he showed me A PURE RIVER OF WATER OF LIFE, CLEAR AS CRYSTAL, PROCEEDING FROM THE THRONE OF GOD AND OF THE LAMB.

Isa 44:3, FOR I WILL POUR WATER ON HIM WHO IS THIRSTY, AND FLOODS ON THE DRY GROUND; I WILL POUR MY SPIRIT ON YOUR DESCENDANTS, AND MY BLESSING ON YOUR OFFSPRING; 

GOD wants to pour HIS Spirit on us, not just a few drops of blessing but a river from the throne of GOD!

Joh 7:37-38, On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “IF ANYONE THIRSTS, LET HIM COME TO ME AND DRINK. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, OUT OF HIS HEART WILL FLOW RIVERS OF LIVING WATER.”

Psa 46:10, BE STILL, AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! 

Be anxious for nothing for our hope is in GOD and if HE is with us then WHO CAN BE AGAINST US? SEEK THE LORD, TRUST IN HIM AND HIS STRENGTH!
