"You Will Know, When You Are Still"

"Be still and know that I am God..."  Isaiah 46:10a

Often when we think about this verse we think about it in the context of holding still and not moving in a situation, being still and not doing anything but instead wait and let God move in it.  It does mean that.  There are times when we don't need to try to take care of it on our own but wait and let the Lord do it.  But I want to look at another side of this verse this morning.

"Be still and know that I am God".  When was the last time you were still in His presence?  When was the last time you went to Him in prayer and sit still long enough for Him to speak to you?  When you are in prayer, do you give Him your list of wants, needs and desires and then that is the end of it-- you're up and gone? 

When we will take the time to sit still (be still) long enough, we will know that He is God.  It will be in those still, unrushed, unhurried, being quiet, patiently waiting times that we discover more about this awesome, amazing and wonderful God.  When we will be still long enough to give Him the opportunity to speak, He will reveal Himself to us.  We will discover much about Him that we didn't know.  We will know, not only more about Him, but truly get to know Him.

Take time each day to be still in His presence.  As you do, you will get a knowing in your "knower" that He truly is God.

Have a great day.  If you will be still long enough in the presence of the Lord, you will get a deeper revelation of who He is-- that He truly is God.
