The Raging of the Nations

Psalm 46:  
         The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;
            he utters his voice, the earth melts.
         The Lord of hosts is with us; 
            the God of Jacob is our fortress.


          Be still, and know that I am God.
              I will be exalted among the nations,
              I will be exalted in the earth!
                                    (verses 6-7, 10)


Can any more be said?  We watch the nations rage on a daily basis.  It is the Lord of hosts who melts the earth, who puts nations in their rightful places.  Psalm 2 tells us that He laughs at their ragings, and will "terrify them in his fury".  He governs all, is sovereign over all.  Nothing is outside of His realm.   


So we can be still.  He is God.  He will be exalted.  Rest this day in that truth.
