Verse of the Day
“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10 (NIV)
Word
Psalm 46:10 invites us to pause, silence our hearts, and acknowledge the presence and sovereignty of God. In moments of uncertainty, chaos, or overwhelming challenges, God calls us to stillness—not just physical stillness but spiritual quietude. This verse reminds us to trust in His power and His control over every situation. The command to "be still" encourages us to release our anxieties and rest in the assurance that God is in charge. By focusing on God's nature—His ability to bring peace in the storm, His guidance in the confusion—we are reminded that our strength comes not from our own efforts but from trusting in Him. Knowing God is an invitation to deeper intimacy with Him, where His presence brings comfort and clarity.
