Stop doing or talking

Psalm 46:10 ESV

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 and Know

Not a sweet verse

Not a plead

A COMMAND!

God is not asking for you to ponder or think about Him being God

STOP! and KNOW that He is God

How do I stop and know that He is God?

Psalm 46:8 ESV

8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, how he has brought desolations on the earth.

The Wrath of God Creates Awe in His Mercy

Psalm 46:8–10 ESV

8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, how he has brought desolations on the earth. 9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the chariots with fire. 10 “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”

Psalm 46:8-10

God brings into order all things

God is not a fairy with His hands in the air going “I don’t know what to do”

He is the lion of the tribe of Judah

Revelation 19:11–16 ESV

11 Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. 12 His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself. 13 He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God. 14 And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. 15 From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. 16 On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.

Revelation 19:11-

God is a conquering victorious God!
