- Psalm 46:10 (NIV84) Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
Only God can pull that off … Saying things like that …
Just a brief glance at the little bird plaque sun-reflector thingy in the kitchen window with this message: “Be still and know that I am God.”
And God got me …
I did it. I got still before my Creator as he spoke this word to me at that instant. “Quiet your heart, place your care in my hands. Give me your sadness. I am God.”
And I thought only God can pull that off, take his written words and sink them into my heart in trust and belief. And only God can be God. Only he can make and stand behind the promise and the claim. Be still. Know that I am God.
- Deuteronomy 4:35 (NIV84) You were shown these things so that you might know that the Lord is God; besides him there is no other.
- Deuteronomy 4:39 (NIV84) Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.
- 1 Kings 8:60 (NIV84) So that all the peoples of the earth may know that the Lord is God and that there is no other.
- Isaiah 44:8 (NIV84) Do not tremble, do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago? You are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me? No, there is no other Rock; I know not one.”
- Isaiah 45:5 (NIV84) I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me,
- Isaiah 45:5–7 (NIV84) I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me, so that from the rising of the sun to the place of its setting men may know there is none besides me. I am the Lord, and there is no other. I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the Lord, do all these things.
Only God can be God. Thank you, Father, for the reminder.
