when they carry out their wicked schemes. Psalm 37:7
"Be still and know that I am Lord" Psalm 46:10
The question is How to be still?
A well known verse from the Bible, yet one we all struggle with. When situation calls for a panic we start running wild, trying to figure out a solution for the issue at hand, instead of submitting it at the Lord's feet and doing things in accordance with His divine guidance.
Only when all our "resolutions" fail we come to the Lord - as our last resort. All the while He was there saying, "Be Still"!
Only when we are still we can know that He is Lord
For example when a child gets hurt with a thorn of some kind, we as parent or even a doctor can't help much unless the child calms down and allows the adult to intervene. In the same way, our Father Lord asks us to be still; so that He can intervene and take care of our pain and suffering. Why is it hard for us to do?
Let us make it part of our prayer going forward: "Dear Lord, Please teach us to be still so that we can see your glory. In Jesus' name - Amen"
Shall we?
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,when they carry out their wicked schemes. Psalm 37:7
