Blessing #4: Experiencing God's Presence in the Storm

"Surely he will never be shaken; a righteous man will be remembered forever."

Psalm 112:6

Verse 6: "Surely he will never be shaken; a righteous man will be remembered forever."

The faith of the true worshiper will not be shaken. Although his life ma be stirred up a bit, neither will he be forgotten.

The patriarch Joseph is certainly a graphic example of one who was never shaken and is remembered forever. He tells his brothers in Genesis 45:5: "And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you" (NIV).

When we get a solid grip on God's sovereign purpose for our lives, we will not be shaken in the storms.

Isaiah 26:3: "You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you" (NIV).

Isaiah 26:12: "Lord, you establish peace for us; all that we have accomplished you have done for us" (NIV).

Isaiah 32:17: "The fruit of righteousness will be peace; the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence forever" (NIV).

Let's worship the Lord together by singing a Selah rendition of "Part the Waters"/ "I Need Thee Every Hour":

When I think I'm going under, part the waters,

Lord When I feel the waves around me, calm the sea.

When I cry for help, oh, hear me Lord and hold out

Your hand Touch my life Still the raging storm in me.

I need The ev'ry hour, Most gracious Lord;

No tender voice like Thine Can peace afford.

I need Thee ev'ry hour, Stay Thou near by;

Temptations lose their pow'r When Thou art nigh.

I need Thee ev'ry hour, In joy or pain;

Come quicly and abide, Or life is vain.
