Psalms 46:10

Psalm 46:10 (New International Version)

"Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."

Such a strong verse in a decaying world...

Read through Acts, chapter 2. Notice what the early Christians did. They were so amazed at God, so filled with His Spirit that the only thing they could think to do was to just stand there in awe!

Look at the Christian's of today... What has happened to that spirit of worship God gave to the early Christians? A better question would be what have we done with it? God never leaves nor forsakes us (Joshua 1:5), but we leave and forsake Him almost everyday...it's called sin...and us being human, we are full of it... But fortunately, God loves us. That's why He sent His one and only, His Son, Jesus, to die for us, to provide us with the only way to heaven, the only way to God (John 14:6). He doesn't ask us to do anything in responce to His love except that we believe that He did what He did, that is send His Son to die for our sins and that God raised Him from the dead 3 days after we crucified Him on the cross. How can we continue to be silent about this?! How can we sit on the couch with a remote control in our hand, watching TV, or sitting in front of a computer screen, reading what God has put on someone else's heart and not want to get out there and spread God's love to a lost and dying world?

My prayer is that God would create a world-wide revival, not just for the lost, but also for the people who claim to be Christians. If we could just be still, like the early Christians, and just listen for God to speak in the silence...our world could be changed...our would would be changed!
