Be Still And Know That I Am God


"Be still and know that I am God." psalm 46:10

What does it mean when God said, "Be still"? It is a command given to remind His anxious, worried and troubled people to align once again to His divine purpose.
God speaks to our spiritual disposition. The order "be still" encourages us to reflect once more that we are limited, and that God is infinite. This spiritual calm, that God commands, does not come from a lack of troubles; it derives from a change of perspective. Magnifying God than the chaotic circumstances we are in. It is a steady, deep reflection, unwavering faith and confident on God alone as well as a complete trust in His unchanging words and faithful promises.
"Be still and know that I am God"… Knowing Him is to be aware of what He is capable of. We should realize that He is our Maker, our Savior and the Only Holy Sovereign God that's in control of everything. There is no other God before or after Him (Isaiah 43:10). Before the heavens and the earth, He is God! We must acknowledge and recognized His power and authority.
The status of our faith and our actions reflect on how deeply and intimately we know our God.
In the midst of problems, though my world crumbles around me, I can be at rest —not because I am the calmest person in the face of adversity, not because of a self-made confidence, nor because “I’ve seen it all.” I am still, because I know my God!
