“Be still, and know that I am God.”
Psa 46:10a

With Jethro, Moses father in law, we need to understand,

“Now I know that Yahweh is greater than all gods because of the thing in which they dealt arrogantly against them.”
Ex 18:11

Perhaps the greatest tribute to God in all of Scripture is by David toward the end of his life.

“… You are blessed, Yahweh, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever. 11 Yours, Yahweh, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, Yahweh, and you are exalted as head above all. 12 Both riches and honor come of you, and you rule over all; and in your hand is power and might; and it is in your hand to make great, and to give strength to all.”
1Chron 29:10-13

“I will be exalted among the nations.
I will be exalted in the earth.”
Psa 46:10b-c

He will indeed be treated in holy ways by all that come near Him. When the sons of Aaron treated lightly the rules for worshipping God, fire cam from before the Lord and killed them.

“Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying,
“‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, And before all the people I will be glorified.’””
Lev 10:3

As David wrote,

“Stand in awe, and don’t sin.
Search your own heart on your bed, and be still.”
Psa 4:4

At the end of his life David told his son Solomon,

“… if you seek him, he will be found of you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.”
2Chron 28:9

“Yahweh of Hosts is with us.
The God of Jacob is our refuge.”
Psa 46:11

When Jehoshaphat went to fight agains a large force of Moabites and Ammonites, the prophet told him,

“You shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand you still, and see the salvation of Yahweh with you, O Judah and Jerusalem; don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed: tomorrow go out against them: for Yahweh is with you.”
2Chr 20:17

And God arranged, as He often does, for their enemies to destroy each other. As Paul put it,

“31 What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?”
Rom 8:31-32

God is a sure refuge in a time of trouble. It has been that way from the beginning, and it will be that way all the way to the very end … no matter how bad it looks from a fleshly point of view. Even when the earth begins to melt.

Psalm 46 is indeed a very abbreviated
description of the same story told
in the book of Revelation!
