Know That I AM GOD

Hi as a follow up to Be Still I want to go further down Ps. 46:10 to the next segment of that verse, Know That I AM GOD. In Be Still, I discussed about setting side time and getting still and LISTENING, an active component of the Heart, to hear GOD speak to you. In this Psalm we have something else, a different type of meditation, a ceasing from all things a big STOP! Then in the silence we bring into our stillness and silence a thought, a concept and ponder, chew, expound on a TRUTH. This is a work of the Holy Spirit in our lives to help bring TRUTH to LIGHT but we must actively pursue it.( I will share a word the LORD gave me about seeking and hearing HIM)
So here we go, we decree and determine to seek GOD's Truth in the stillness of our hearts and we bring in a concept, verse, a question or even a doubt. Then allow the process of the leading of the Holy Spirit and our Spirit to bring forth GOD's desire. In this case we are going to be still and contemplate, meditate and allow to grow the idea of GOD. Yes, who is GOD! I wont go into this but we are all wounded and have been hurt by this world, the flesh and the devil. Due to this our perception of GOD is skewed, bent and corrupted. So it might be a great starting point for one to go into meditation with the prayer "Father show me who you are." HE will more than gladly reveal Himself to an open heart and more than willing to Heal that heart, if you will let HIM. Remember, The Trinity is IN You! They are not light years away but in you, CHRIST in you the hope of glory! Keep that in mind it will change your life. Jesus died to give us this relationship, to make us ONE with the Father.
This Psalm builds us up to see GOD in all HIS power and sovereignty, so bring that into your meditation. The purpose being is to see GOD above and beyond any situation or problem you have. Scripture tells us to Magnify the LORD, in Magnifying HIM everything else shrinks( thanks for that Manny). An example of doing this is when lets say you have a health need or financial problem and you are overwhelmed, anxious, fearful and not seeing GOD for who HE is. Seek HIM, be still and then meditate on GOD's attribute, magnify the fact HE spoke and all came into being, HE holds the Universe in HIS hand and has named all the stars. Know HIS word and ponder the promises specific to your situation. See HIM in all HIS Glory, know Jesus defeated the devil and is now seated and resting next to the Father. Jesus is there because HE has done all that HE needs to do. The extent is limitless to which you can go with this for GOD is limitless. Maybe just pursue what the word GOD means but allow it to be lead by the Holy Spirit through your heart and not your head.
I pray this helps, take the time and see GOD for who HE truly is and everything disappears in the Light of HIS glory then Trust HIM to do what HE has said HE will. GOD bless JB
