1 God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. 2 So we will not fear when earthquakes come and the mountains crumble into the sea. ,,, 10 “Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.”
Dear Ones: God is our refuge! When troubles come (and are here now), HE tells us to be still. He reminds us that HE is GOD! Through HIS awesome work, HE will be known and honored by every nation in the final outcome. The earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD. (Habakkuk 2:14 and Numbers 14:21)
On Memorial Day we honor those who died fighting for our country and the freedoms we enjoy. This nation has gone through many perils, but she was born a Christian nation. The Founders appealed to Heaven and made the LORD their refuge. It is a good time to remember these things. Freedom is not free. It is bought with blood. The Savior’s Blood bought our freedom from sin. The blood of the men & women who fought purchased our liberty from tyranny.
May the LORD always be your refuge and strength. The ONE you go to first in times of trouble. Have a safe weekend as you think on these things. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
