Podcasts about God is our refuge

Pastor Neil Armstrong Assistant Pastor Summer In The Psalms Series July 19, 2026 AM

Most of us believe God is in control, but when life gets hard, our worry tells a different story. In this message from Psalm 46, we look at how King Hezekiah faced an impossible situation and discovered that God is our refuge, our source, and our strength. If you're in a season where the chaos feels louder than your faith, this one is for you.

Pastor Wayne Van Gelderen shares biblical truth that will bring hope and comfort in these uncertain days. May we draw closer to God through this time and impact those around us for eternity. https://fallsbaptist.org https://baptistcollege.org https://www.theegeneration.org https://ontovictorypress.com If you'd like to support this ministry - https://fallsbaptist.org/give/

We were never meant to carry them alone. Psalm 46:1 (NIV) “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” Those words have strengthened God's people for generations.

Our refuge is found in the living God, who remains close when life feels uncertain and whose strength never runs dry. When we cannot hold everything together, He faithfully holds us.

God is Our Refuge!

In a world where words can wound and relationships can fracture, we discover a timeless truth from Psalm 31: God is our refuge. This exploration takes us deep into David's experience of betrayal, pursuit, and pain—feelings we know all too well in our own lives. Whether it's hurtful words from friends, attacks on social media, or the weight of others' judgments, we face a critical choice in our response. The message challenges us to examine where we truly run when life gets hard. Do we numb ourselves with distractions, shopping, work, or other temporary escapes? Or do we pour out our hearts to the One who is strong enough to hold our pain? The distinction between venting in anger and trusting God with our exhaustion becomes clear through Elijah's story—it's in that place of surrender, not fury, where we actually find refuge. Most radically, we're called to do nothing in our own defense, trusting God's reputation over our own. Jesus modeled this perfectly, remaining silent before His accusers and ultimately declaring from the cross, 'Into your hands I commit my spirit'—a direct quote from Psalm 31. We're invited to ground ourselves in this truth: that finding refuge in God means trusting Him enough to be gut-wrenchingly honest while releasing our need to fight back.

A sermon from Ted Powers on Psalm 46

In this episode, Bobby Bosler reflects on Psalm 46:1 and the powerful truth that God is “a very present help in trouble.” Drawing from personal Bible study and a simple illustration from everyday life, he explains how easy it is to think of God as distant when we face pressure, weakness, or distress. Yet Scripture reveals that God is not merely nearby—He is right within reach, ready to be our refuge, our strength, and the help we need in every situation. Topics Discussed Psalm 46:1 and the three descriptions of God: refuge, strength, and help What it means for God to be a refuge or safe place The different dimensions of strength God provides: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual The meaning of “help in trouble” and the kinds of distress people experience The significance of the phrase “very present help” in the Hebrew text How believers can mistakenly view God as distant in times of difficulty A practical illustration showing the difference between something being nearby and being within reach Learning to depend on God right where you are Key Takeaways God is a safe place where believers can find security and protection. The Lord provides strength for every area of life, including mental and emotional strain. In every distress or difficulty, the ultimate need is not a new solution but God Himself. Psalm 46 teaches that God is not merely close to us—He is very present, accessible, and ready to help. Believers can depend on God immediately, because He is always right within reach.

This week we got to hear from one of our Directional Leadership Team members, Bjorn Hanson. Bjorn walked us through Psalm 91 as we focused on God being our refuge.

This week we got to hear from one of our Directional Leadership Team members, Bjorn Hanson. Bjorn walked us through Psalm 91 as we focused on God being our refuge.

Just as parts of the Psalms, such as  22 v.1 and 16 v,10,11 foreshadowed events and sayings in the mortal life of our Lord, so Psalms 46 and 47 we read today can be seen as portraying the awesome events at and after the time of his second coming.   The overview of those events which these Psalms provide, show how vital it will be for us to possess and “to show the same earnestness to have the full assurance of hope until the end … imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” [Heb.6 v.11,12]        The opening of Psalm 46 should be memorized and become part of our daily thoughts; “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way … though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble …” [v.1-3] “The nations rage, the kingdoms totter …” [v.6]  But in the midst of this awesome upheaval , “… the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High (is seen) … God will help her when morning dawns.” [v.4,5]      Until that dawning, the darkness of human depravity and folly will dominate life on earth.  But with the dawning to a new day which the return of Christ will bring will come a sober reflection on God's judgments:  “Come behold the works of the LORD, how he has brought desolations on the earth, He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth …” [v.8,9]  How wonderful!  How awesome!   But as it becomes more and more evident that God's judgments are starting today how vital it will be that “God is our refuge and strength”  and for us to “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations …” [v.10]     At that time, may we, by God's grace, be part of the action described in Psalm 47 “ Clap your hands, all peoples!  Shout to God with loud songs of joy!  For the LORD, the Most High is to be feared, a great king over the earth.  He subdued peoples under us, and nations …” [v.1-3]   If God is truly our refuge now – then, by his grace, that will be our experience.    

David teaches us in this Psalm that we can run to the Lord for security, serenity and stillness.

1 Samuel 22.1-23. David finds himself in a cave, with no one who seems to care for his soul. He prays to God and understands that God would “deal bountifully” with him by sending “the righteous to surround him” and then we see God gather people to him. First his family and then 400 men, […]

The enemy wants us to believe we're vulnerable, but God says we're covered. When you choose to dwell in His presence—not just visit, but dwell—His shadow covers you. His power shields you. Even in turmoil, His presence keeps you secure.Each day, choose to declare Psalm 91 over your life. Speak it in your home, over your family, and over your future. Fear may try to rise, but faith in God's protection will silence it.Strength for the Journey: A 50-Day Prayer Guide eBook: https://tinyurl.com/ebook-PreorderAccept Jesus Today  https://youtube.com/shorts/bIwAUlz7Kg4?si=BNOhv44iLWIR4eVJIf you would like to accept Jesus into your heart today, pray this simple prayer:****God, I have sinned against You.

Where do we turn when times are hard? We can run FROM God or we can run TO God.

Pastor Lance discusses the importance of seeking God's direction in worship, along with more insights on overcoming evil with good, tying in with last week's study. His message conveys that waiting on the Lord renews strength and offers hope of eternal life, inviting the body to engage in prayer and worship for community support.

God is our refuge.   How's that work?   Where was He when I was in trouble the other day?   Where is He now?     How am I supposed to believe in a God that doesn't seem to be around when I need Him?#toughquestionsforgod #godisgood #godislove #faithinjesus #faithinjesuschrist #faithinjesussavesWebsite: www.toughquestionsforgod.orgyoutube @ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC769G9moIYN53BNHlGNf-hA

No matter how unsettled the world gets, if we know God, we need not fear.
