Bible Verse of The Day – 7-30-16

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

Be still.

Those are probably two of the hardest words we will ever be told by God to carry out.

Being still when we’re going through trials requires that we trust God 100%. It takes a lot of faith to sit still when things are crumbling around us. But being still is what God says to do.

He wants us to be still so we don’t get frantic and rely solely on our intellect or our logical mind to try to fix everything. Instead, He wants us to have faith and trust Him to help us.

And He wants us to listen for His voice, through the Holy Spirit, so He can tell us what to do.

Most times, our minds are so busy trying to come up with solutions to our problems that we can’t hear Him when he does speak to us. This is why He tells us to be still.

It’s easy, when everything is going well, for us to say that we trust God. But when things get difficult, and the rubber meets the road, that’s when we get tested. That’s when “walking in faith” can be the most difficult.

But it’s then, during those trying times, that we need our faith even more.

Living and walking by faith takes time and practice to adjust to. It doesn’t just happen overnight because we want it to. But as we begin to trust God and be still in little things, we will find it easier and easier to do in bigger things.

So start today. Trust Him and be still. Know that He is God!
