God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling.
Selah
There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High. God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn.
The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.
The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah
Come, behold the works of the LORD, who has made desolations in the earth.
He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire.
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.
Selah (Psalms 46)
‘The Lord, Almighty God, has spoken. He will make the war in Ukraine cease. Russia heed His voice. Though men will have their schemes, father’s will grieve their sons, and sons dishonour the fathers, the Lord Jesus will even use the earth to intervene.
Cease the war, or mountains shall swell and burst forth, the earth will shake, the weapons of warfare will be destroyed, and those at the heart of this war will be removed.
But those who seek the Lord will find refuge and strength, and dwell in the very presence of God. Be still, and know that He is God. ’
For your prayerful discernment in the name of Jesus Christ.
Note: There is a sense this is the heart of God as He despairs over the war initiated by Russia in Ukraine. In a season where fathers were meant to raise up sons and daughters, Father Russia has decided to send sons to their destruction, and grieve their children, and so the children now dishonour their father. God has sought for men to bring peace, however this has not come, their pride and greed being the stumbling block.
So now there is a sense God will intervene. Even causing the earth to participate in His plans, bring stillness even to those who desire to continue to fight. One can but wonder what this will look like but a sign in the east of Russia seems to confirm His intent. So please, in the name of Jesus, may those in leadership, Putin, Zelensky, the armed forces brass, and others, move quickly, for Lord has warned us that He will intervene in a way that you will be made to be still!
Fathers and mothers need to remember their’s is to raise the children in the way of the Lord, but it is the Lord they are to trust in when regarding what they will do when they are raised up.
Those in Hamas and Israel also need to take note. For the Lord is no respecter of persons. This is a warning for all.
