Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! Psalm 46:10
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye. Psalm 32:8
Dear National and Local Friends,
In multiple settings this week, both personally and in ministry, we have heard Him saying, “Be still.”
We also received this word in prayer and submitted it to someone this week. It’s speaking to us, too. We indeed have His peace to submit it to you.
“Be still. Be quiet under My wing. Surrender control of it to Me. Place them in My hands. Keep your hands off the situation. Keep your hands empty to praise Me and embrace Me and receive the appointed task I have for you. When you redirect your eyes onto Me, I will direct you in the way you are to go. When you step by faith in that direction, I will anoint you where I appoint you.” Psalm 46; Isaiah 41:13; Matt 11:28-30; Psalm 25:5; Isaiah 42:6; Psalm 32:8; Colossians 3:15
As we have learned and taught over the years, “be still” in the Bible means to be quiet before Him and surrender control to Him. Consider if He is saying this to you right now. Is there something you are very excited about? Angry about? Something you feel you must share with someone or you’re going to burst? If you are reading this, it’s very possible He is telling you to “be still” and make a simple sequence of choices. Kim and I are working through these steps right now on a matter. Thank you Jesus, for being such a Good Shepherd!
- Stop talking about it.
- Give it to Jesus.
- Ask Him to do His will, not yours.
- Wait for His guiding peace in your heart and a confirming peace through a trusted believer.
- Do what you have His peace and permission to do; don’t do what you don’t have peace and permission to do.
Otherwise, we continue in our 4-point David-like daily prayers. Use and share the video as an introduction/refresher for yourself and others. There is no doubt He is producing more effectual prayer through this!
