2014 Rhema: Psalm 46:10a
He says, “Be still, and
know that I am God …”
Hezekiah in time of trouble – Psalm 46
• Psalm 46:10-11• 10 He says, “Be still,
and know that I am God;I will be exalted among the nations,I will be exalted in the earth.”

Psalm 46 tells us that in 2014:• Trouble will strike the
godly• God is sufficient to get
you through
• The Lord is our refuge• The Lord is our
strength• The Lord is our
fortress• The Lord is our help in
times of trouble
No problem, whether
emotional, physical, or
spiritual, is too big for our God.
In 2014 the Lord says “be still …”• It doesn’t mean to sit.• It means to still the
– The mind, – The eyes, as well as,– The tongue.
• It means – to relax, – to let things go, – to abandon, – to withdraw, – to refrain.
Listen to the still small voice of God!
