INSPIRATION (Giving direction to your day) - OLA AINA

PSALM FORTY SIX

Text: “Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea.” Ps 46:2

I want to encourage you to read the entire Psalm, it’s so powerful. Every time I have a challenge on my hands or something is bothering me I get into this Psalm. The Psalm is always like cold water to a thirsty soul.

The essence of Psalms is not to read them inside water to bath or drink, neither is it meant to be kept under our pillow as we sleep. That may be religious but that is not the purpose. The word of God that produce result for you is the one in your heart and spoken from your mouth (Joshua 1:8), not the one under your pillow. The word of God is supposed to leave the pages of scriptures and dwell in your heart.

The essence of Psalms in general is to receive encouragement from them. They are meant to serve as light in our dark hours. Showing us the mind of God in trouble.

David went through the most difficult seasons of life and in the midst of it all he said he will not fear no matter what happens. Just imagine the earth been removed or the mountains carried into the sea, David said “I will not fear”, that is a decision you have to make too. No matter what is wrong make a decision ahead of it not to be afraid. This is important because fear opens the way for the enemy to take advantage of us. When fear takes over the enemy takes over.

No matter what happens around you don’t ever lose sight of God on your side. He’s a very present help in time of trouble. When the whole world is gone God is there for you. He lives in you. You are too defended to fail.

CONFESSION:

God is my refuge and strengthen. No matter what happens I will not be afraid.
