“Be Still” Ps 4:4 A spiritual disposition that ought to characterize those to whom God’s unfailing promises have been given. The command forces us to think on two things, that we are finite and that God is infinite. That being the case, we need to drop our hands, go limp, relax and ‘chill out”. This spiritual calm, that God commands, does not come from a lack of troubles; it derives from a steady, deep reflection on the ways God has intervened in history on behalf of His people.

“Be Still and Know that I Am God” Ps 46:10
So as your world crumbles around you, the call from Scripture is: don’t flinch in faith in God. Stand still- not because of your self-made confidence, not because you are the most composed person in the face of disaster, not because “you’ve seen it all”. Be still because of what you know about God. It is “God’s past” that provides calm for your future”. Know that He is God! Know it, not merely intellectually, but practically, spiritually, and emotionally. He is your God. He is the ruler of kingdoms of this earth and the all-powerful Creator of the universe. - Jason Jackson, via the Christian Courier

“Be Still” Ps 4:4 Hymn: Be Still My Soul
When in distress, do I meditate in my heart on my bed and receive the quietness of soul that comes from my belief in and confession of God’s power, His control over all things, and His faithfulness to the promises that He has made to His people? Hymn: Be Still My Soul
