God Is Our Place Of Safety

 

 

God is our place of safety. He gives us strength. He is always there to help us in times of trouble.


The earth may fall apart. The mountains may fall into the middle of the sea. But we will not be afraid.


The waters of the sea may roar and foam. The mountains may shake when the waters rise. But we will not be afraid.  Selah

God's blessings are like a river. They fill the city of God with joy. That city is the holy place where the Most High God lives.

 

Because God is there, the city will not fall. God will help it at the beginning of the day.


Nations are in disorder. Kingdoms fall. God speaks, and the people of the earth melt in fear. The Lord who rules over all is with us. The God of Jacob is like a fort to us. Selah

Come and see what the Lord has done. See the places he has destroyed on the earth.


He makes wars stop from one end of the earth to the other. He breaks every bow. He snaps every spear. He burns every shield with fire.


He says, "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be honored among the nations. I      I will be honored in the earth."


The Lord who rules over all is with us. The God of Jacob is like a fort to us. Selah

 

Psalm 46:1-11

 

When believers die, they are safely carried by the Lord to their home in heaven.

 

In life and in death – and even in sleep – the loving arms of our loving Lord are there to catch and hold us.

 

You can trust God in the dark as well as in the light.
