Psalms 46:2 (KJV) The “Acts of God”

Psalms 46:2 (KJV)

Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

Consider the “acts of God” listed in Psalms 46:2-3 (KJV)

Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
Thoughthe waters thereof roar andbe troubled, thoughthe mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah

Despite the raging of nature the Psalmist declares Psalms 46:4 (KJV)
There isa river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy placeof the tabernacles of the most High.

In light of this there are three truths pieced together.
God is a present help
Vs. 1

• Not theoretical
• Not mythical
• Not mystical

He is present, he is very present, he is helpful against all these disasters.

Christians may “behold the works of the Lord”
Vs. 8
It is in this study of God’s hand that we find strength and fearlessness. 

• He gives us gladness 
• He is our refuge

We are called to “be still”
Vs. 10
We’ll never know that God is God if we are so busy we never behold His work. We’ll never know that God is God if we constantly go about doing what He would have done.

• He is very present[1]
• He is in the midst[2]
• He is with us[3]

Step aside. Sit still. Allow God to show Himself.
