Shhhh...let it go.

No matter what troubles come about, whether from earthquakes, floods or wars, the person who trusts in God is not overcome by them (46:1-3).

They have an inner calmness, likened to a cool refreshing stream that flows gently from God. The Almighty is still in full control, and he gives strength to his people (4-7).

God’s power can smash all opposition. Therefore, opponents should stop fighting against him and realize that he is the supreme God, the supreme ruler of the world (8-11).

Be still, and know that I am God...(vs 10).

The word still does not mean be quiet.

H7503. רָפָה rāp̱āh: A verb meaning to become slack, to relax, to cease, to desist...to become weak, to become feeble, to let drop...to leave alone, to let go, to forsake, to abandon...

It means to let go.

The word know means to grasp, to aquire, to comprehend, to understand.

To grasp that God is who He says He is, and to let go of trying to hold onto a chaotic, out of control world, and let God figure it out instead.

Let go of your own security, and grasp onto the true safety of the goodness and power of God.
