Our Text is Psalms 46:10
“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth,”
Perhaps you know this from the songs that challenge us to “be still and know that I am God. But do you know the deeper insight?
The call to “Be still” is an invitation to release our grip on control and trust in God’s sovereignty. In a world where activity and busyness often dominate, this call to stillness is a reminder that true peace and clarity come when we step back and allow God to work. Letting go of control is not a sign of weakness but of faith, acknowledging that God’s wisdom far surpasses our own. By surrendering our anxieties and plans to Him, we make room for His perfect will to unfold.
The verse also emphasizes God’s authority over all creation. In recognizing His sovereignty, we are reminded that nothing in our lives escapes His notice or power. Trusting in God’s sovereignty means believing that, even when things seem uncertain, His purposes will prevail. The comfort and strength that come from this trust are invaluable. “Let go and let God” becomes more than just a saying; it becomes a way of life.
