NEWS & UPDATES

From the Pastor's Desk

1/11/2021

 
In the midst of the present turmoil and anxious state of mind the world population is living, there is  a reassuring word for the people of God. A word God's people can rest upon and grab hold of because of Who it is speaking about. Leaders fail, governments fail, monetary security is fleeting; God remains faithful and immovable. Because He is Who He is, He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. 

PSALM 46

​God the Refuge of His People.
For the choir director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah, set to Alamoth. A Song.

1 God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change
And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea;
3 Though its waters roar and foam,
Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride. Selah.

4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
The holy dwelling places of the Most High.
5 God is in the midst of her, she will not be moved;
God will help her when morning dawns.
6 The nations made an uproar, the kingdoms tottered;
He raised His voice, the earth melted.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah.
​

8 Come, behold the works of the Lord,
Who has wrought desolations in the earth.
9 He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth;
He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
He burns the chariots with fire.
10 “Cease striving 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 stronghold. Selah.
(NASB)
