Be still and know I am God.

I will be exalted among the nations.

I will be exalted in the earth!

The LORD of hosts is with us,

the God of Jacob is our fortress.

Psalm 46:10-11 (ESV)

David tells us the words God has spoken to him. The LORD tells us to come into his presence and listen for what He must tell us. He then tells that God Almighty is with us and is our strength.

I enjoy the quietness of our house in the mornings. I can concentrate on God. I can reflect on what he has done for me and how He has answered prayer. I feel closer to Him when I have spent time just listening to what He tells me.

Whenever I am troubled, I try to get quiet and communicate with the LORD. He, then, strengthens and guides me through the issue.

BE STILL: A part of prayer is listening to God. We give Him our requests and we wait to hear from Him.

KNOW THAT I AM GOD: We must recognize God for Who He Is, the many roles He plays-our Creator, our Comforter, our Sustainer, our Father, and our Friend.

I WILL BE EXALTED: God will be praise, throughout the world-by all people groups. Jesus told the scribes and the Pharisees, “If people don’t praise, the rocks will cry out.” (Luke 19:40)
