Be Still, But Still Be

Psalm 46:10, "Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth."

Be still and know that He is God!  Take a moment, slow down and be still!  Remind yourself of Who God is, and what He can do!  But, don't get complacent in the waiting.  What exactly does that mean?

Be still and know that He is God, but, be still working for Him.  By allowing Him to do His will in your life does not mean that you do nothing!  You must still be reading and studying His Word, praying, going to church, doing what you know to do as a Christian!

Be still and know that He is God, but, be still walking with Him.  Just because you don't feel Him, or see Him moving in your life, does not mean that He isn't.  Keep pressing on to the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus!  What happens to a path when no one is walking on it?  It gets grown over and the path disappears.  The same thing happens in our Christian walk!  You stop walking, and Satan is right there to plant weeds and vines to hide the way!!

Be still and know that he is God, but, be still worshipping.  Go ahead and praise God for answering your prayer while He is working it out!  He deserves all worship, at all times.  It doesn't matter if you feel like it or not, He is to be worshipped!  The Bible says the rocks will cry out if we do not!  If He does nothing more than save your sorry soul....that alone deserves praise from here to eternity!!

Be still and know that he is God, but, be still wanting to know more, to taste more of His blessings.  Don't get slack.  Keep that desire, that hunger and thirst after God's Word.  The closer you get to Him, the closer you want to get!  Be careful though, you can lose that desire so quickly.  You give the flesh just a little bit of attention, the flesh will want more, until all of your attention is focused on yourself and not the Lord.

Be still and know that he is God, but be still waiting.....waiting anxiously, looking toward the sky, for His soon coming!  His coming is so close, we are on the brink of being called home!  Don't give up now, there is nothing to go back to!!  Be still and know that He Is God, He is and will be exalted above all....whether you choose Him or not......don't miss out on your blessing!!
