Psalms 11:3-4
3 When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?” 4 The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD is on his heavenly throne. He observes everyone on earth;
his eyes examine them.
In another bible study, a question was posed, what do you do when disasters strike? What do you do when there is nothing you can do? When all the world is falling in around you and you have no answers what can you possibly do? Today’s verse was their answer. You remember that God is still on the thrown. No matter how bad things look, or how helpless you feel, you can be sure God is still there.
I also proposed another verse. I answer this with this verse:
“Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand” (Ephesians 6:13).
As Christians, we do have responsibilities. One of those responsibilities is to stand firm. We have to stand in our hope and faith. We have to stand in our knowledge that God loves us and is in control even when it doesn’t look like it.
The world is a frightening place. Often our foundations are destroyed right out from under us with no warning. What can we do? We can stand firm and remember God is still in His holy temple, on His throne, and fighting for us!
Lord, thank You, for always being on Your thrown, even when the world tries to convince me You are not. ~amen
