Be Still 
Today's Scripture
"Be still, and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10 NIV). 
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria 
In this day and age, our culture has become so accustomed to having 
constant activity going on; computers, cell phones, television, email, 
video games.  And there's nothing wrong with that stuff but sometimes, we 
have to stop and be still so we can focus on knowing God. This is 
especially true during the difficult times in life. When you are facing a 
challenge, it's easy to want to run to a friend or talk about it with a 
neighbor, but at some point, you have to stop and say, "God, I rest in 
You. I know You have me in the palm of Your hand." Remember, our battles 
are spiritual battles. The people in your life aren't your enemy, the 
forces of darkness are. When you choose to be still and know that the 
Greater One lives on the inside of you, you are saying to the whole world, 
"I trust God. He is my Defender." When you choose to believe in Him you 
will enter into His rest. Remember, the battle belongs to the Lord. As you 
are still before Him, You will see His hand of victory and blessing in 
every area of your life! 
A Prayer for Today 
Father in Heaven, I humbly come before You. I choose to be still before 
You. Speak to my heart so I can know You more. Fill me with Your peace as 
I put my trust in You. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
