Morning by Morning, October 12 - Our “Very Present Help in Time of Trouble” Good morning, Lord Jesus. You are my Rock and Refuge, my Anchor of Hope, my Steadfast Stronghold who never fails, O Lord my God--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. ... As I wait for Your leading, I’m drawn to pray the Psalms of Your Word that speak of security in the midst of shaking, confidence and peace in the mist of turmoil and fear. I’m remembering the Scriptures that remind us to keep looking to You, finding our strength in You, unwavering in our trust in You now matter what’s going on around us. Psalms of Your Word like Psalm 46, that I pray out now--speaking it out loud into the spiritual atmosphere around me, praying it out loud into the spiritual atmospheres around the world where it needs to be heard, and proclaiming it out loud into the innermost depths of my being: God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 3 Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah 4 There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High. 5 God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn. 6 The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted. 7 The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah 8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, Who has made desolations in the earth. 9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire. 10 Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! 11 The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah Now, let Your Word go forth--into the nations of the world, into my world around me, into the inner world inside of me. And I know Your Word will not return void or empty, but will accomplish every purpose for which You send it (Isaiah 55:11). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
