Be Still Before God (Aug 4)
The 2nd book of Psalms (Ps 42-72)
is similar to the book of Exodus,
as many of these psalms describe
Israel as ruined and then recovered.
These psalms can help us pray for
rescue, confess our sin & trust God.
Psa 42-49 are attributed to sons
of Korah, who served as singers
and musicians in the temple.
Lord,Thank U for Being My Refuge:
God is our Refuge and Strength,
an Ever-Present Help in times
of trouble. So, we will not fear,
when earthquakes come and
Mountains crumble into the sea;
though waters roar & be troubled,
though the mountains shake…
BE STILL and know that I am God…
I will be exalted in the earth!
The Lord of hosts is with us (and)
God is Our Refuge (Ps46:1-3,10-11)
Lord, Your Word says You are ever
Ready To Help in times of trouble.
Forgive me for the times when
I act as though You don’t exist.
Teach me to pull back fr troubles
and instead focus on You. I don’t
have to fear, no matter what I face.
For every moment that I breathe,
You are My Strength. And though
my life may be shaken to its core,
You are still My Refuge. Amen.
Father, when everything in my life
seems on the verge of crumbling &
falling apart, help me to experience You Lord as My Firm Foundation.
For though You’re the Mountain Mover, You also hold creation
steady in the palm of Your hand.
Guide me Lord as I entrust my mountains over to You my solid
and ever faithful Father. Amen.
Lord, my heart may worry for though
You’re on Your throne, but I don’t
know what You are going to do.
Help me Be Still In You, trust You
and give me rest in You. Let me
know You are With me in every
circumstance, no matter how
difficult or even traumatic. And
let me Experience You as a Very
Present Help in trouble. Amen.
