Psalm 46 helps us to worship God as the fortress for our lives.God is a fortress in which we can shelter, recoup and rest from the chaos of life.

Passage: Psalm 46 Speaker: Nigel Kane Sermon: Sunday PM Date: 31st May 2026

Psalm 46 - Refuge, Renewal and RestThe Psalms are like a songbook and prayerbook for real life.Instead of pretending everything is fine, they help us bring our honest emotions to God. And at the same time, they gently reshape how we see things, reminding us of who God really is—faithful, in control, full of mercy, and always worthy of our trust and praise.Rob Scott-Cook introduces our new series by looking at Psalm 46.

When life's storms come crashing down on us, where can we turn? We can turn to the Lord and look for His protection and provision. Join us today as we dive into a wonderful psalm that gives strength and peace in the storms of life. DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    Psalm 46 is about finding peace in the midst of major upheaval. Is your world undergoing upheaval? If so, in what way? If a person did not trust God in such a storm, how would they respond? How are you responding differently?  2.    How does verse 1 remind us that when we face difficulties, we can find refuge in God no matter what they are? What does the word "refuge" picture? How is this evident (or not evident) in your own life?  3.    The "present help" in verse 1 speaks of active, real help from the Lord. Where have you seen the Lord help you in your storms?  4.    Why kind of devastation is the psalmist referring to in verses 2 & 3? What might this look like in our lives today?  5.    The "selah" at the end of verse 3 is calling us to pause and reflect on what he's just said. Take a moment and re-read verses 1-3 and summarize what they're saying here: 6.    Verse 4 takes us to a place where there is no storm, no bitterness, no division, or hatred or problems at work, health, etc. Why do we need to remember that such a place exists? According to this psalm, who lives there? How are they being refreshed (in verse 4)? How do we abide "there" even when we live in a fallen world here?  7.    How would a river sustain a city in these ancient times? Was there a river flowing into Jerusalem? In verse 5, why was it important for the people of Israel to know that even through there was no river in Jerusalem, the Lord was her sustenance? In practical terms, what does this principle look like for believers today? 8.    Even though God's grace and peace continues in the storm, in verse 6, what do the nations continue to do as well? Why?  9.    What is the Lord's response to the nations in verse 6? What happens with this response? What principle is the author teaching us here? 10.    According to verse 7, who is with us? What does verse 7 say about the impact His presence has in our lives?  11.    The word "hosts" in verse 7 speaks of armies. What armies does the Lord control? Why is this important for us to remember? 12.    Since verse 7 ends with "selah", how about taking a moment to re-read verses 4-7 and summarizing them here:  13.    Why does verse 8 call us to "behold the works of the Lord"? What works might he be referring to? Why does this strengthen our peace in the midst of a storm?  14.    What does verse 9 show us about the Lord's control over the nations? Why is this important, even when the world around us is the source of our storm?  15.    Verse 10 calls us to "cease striving". This could also be translated as "be still". If we're to be still, who are we trusting to act on our behalf? In your own live, are you more likely to be striving or being still the storms of your life? What would it look like to be still in these storms? What kind of faith and trust in the Lord is required to be still in this way?  16.    Verse 11 repeats the encouragement from verse 7. Why do you think the author repeats himself here?  17.    Verse 11 also ends with "selah". How about taking a moment to re-read and summarize the principles from verses 8-11 here:  18.    In your own life, where do you need the Lord's peace? What principles from this psalm speak to your situation today?  Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon just in time for the Genesis relaunch in January!

Summary In this sermon on Psalm 46, Michael Easley addresses the pervasive fear and anxiety that often shape human life in times of uncertainty. From global threats and war to personal worries and imagined disasters, he illustrates how fear drives people toward self-protection, control, and even hoarding. Yet Psalm 46 redirects the believer to a far greater truth: God alone is our refuge, strength, and ever-present help in trouble. Easley walks through the psalm's structure, showing how God remains secure in every category of fear—natural disaster, national crisis, and global upheaval. Even if the most unshakable parts of creation were to collapse, God remains steadfast. He emphasizes that peace is not found in human defense systems, wealth, or preparation, but in trusting the sovereign presence of God. The sermon contrasts anxious striving with divine stability, calling believers to “cease striving and know that I am God.” Easley highlights that true courage is not the absence of fear, but the presence of confidence in God's unchanging character. Ultimately, Psalm 46 invites believers to rest in God's sovereignty, remember His past faithfulness, and trust His ongoing rule over all things. The message concludes with a call to stillness, reminding listeners that the safest place in a shaken world is a right relationship with Jesus Christ. Takeaways God alone is our refuge and strength in every form of fear. Even when life feels unstable, God remains unshaken and present. Fear often leads us to control, but faith calls us to trust. God is our help in both personal anxiety and global uncertainty. True peace comes from ceasing striving and recognizing God's sovereignty. The safest place in a chaotic world is a right relationship with Christ. To read the Psalms, click here. Click here for other Michael Easley Sermons.

Sermon by Andy Miller

The lyrical air ‘Dawning of the Day' (Fáinne Geal an Lae) conveys this Psalm's message of courage and hope. Through the imagery presented in this Psalm, we see mountains falling into the sea, and the world in upheaval ~ yet, we are also presented with the assuring image of a river that brings joy, and the message that we might be still and know that God is the ultimate ruler over all.Get your accompanying journal, which includes further questions for reflection and some invitations to prayer and practicePaid subscribers receive a free journal PDF, or you can purchase a paperback versionVisit the Celtic Psalms website for scores/books, mp3s, CDs, and videos for The God of JacobFind out more about the Habits for the Spirit course: an 8-week online course exploring habits and daily spiritual practices to promote wellbeing in body, mind, and spiritFollow Kiran's monthly reflections on Bless My FeetPsalms for the Spirit is a reader-supported publication.

April 19th, 2026 Pastor Chad McDonald Derek Redmond was a runner on the British sprint team. He was running the 4x400m relay with his teammates. At the onset of the race, his team was doing well. Then came the handoff to Derek. He was the anchor leg. His job was to bring it home for his team. But as he turned the corner, he pulled his Achilles tendon and fell flat on his face. He laid there on the ground in desperate pain. He couldn’t walk, so he began to crawl. The audience was silent as all eyes were fixed on him as he tried to scratch his way towards the finish line. During the unfolding drama, a man ran from the stands and picked up Derek Redmond. One of the judges tried to stop him, but the man waved him off and said, “Leave me alone, this is my boy.” Derek’s father left the stands and came down to where Derek had fallen. He picked him up, put his arm over his shoulder, and with his arms around his son’s waist, helped Derek across the finish line. The crowd erupted in applause. Derek and his dad received more applause than all the other runners who needed no help. This week, as we turn our attention to Psalm 46, the psalmist reminds us of someone in the stands who is willing to come down, pick you up, and let you put your arm over His shoulder. He’ll put His arm around your waist, and He will carry you. He is not just a help. He is a very present help in times of trouble. Make plans today to worship with this us this weekend. Don’t forget our new 8 am worship service and our Saturday night service opportunity. I look forward to seeing you at church. In Christ, Pastor Chad

Be still and know that God is God.  We live in a culture of overwhelm – news feeds, work pressure, financial strain, mental health struggles.  The empty tomb means we're not alone in what overwhelms us.  Psalm 46The Lord doesn't promise an easy life, but he does promise his presence in your chaos.

Psalm 46 - Who Told You To Carry That? - Sam Spence

As long as you remain at My Feet, there is no trouble.

Psalm 46:8-11

Our reading today contains some statutes that seem harsh, some that seem odd, and others that could easily be incorporated into daily interactions today. A few things to remember: first, the covenant with Israel was one in which the entire community had to remain holy because the Lord is holy and lived among them; sometimes this means being set apart and pure in simple daily routines as a reminder that they are to be distinct among the nations. Second, it's clear that the Lord hates injustice, which is why he sent His Son in our place, so that justice could be executed on the cross. Third, nobody likes a mooch, man! Go home and eat your own grapes!

When life feels urgent, loud, and out of control, the invitation to “be still” can feel impossible. In this episode, we take a deeper look at Psalm 46 and what it truly means to cease striving and trust God in the middle of uncertainty.Through the picture of a sacred pause, we explore how stillness becomes a place of refuge where we bring our fears, lies, and overwhelming emotions before the Lord, and allow Him to be our defender. Looking at the example of Hezekiah and the promises found in Scripture, we are reminded that God is ever present, actively at work, and faithful in every battle we face.For widows and single moms, this is an invitation to release what cannot be controlled, trust God's timing, and rest in His strength.Key Takeaways:Stillness is choosing to cease striving and trust GodYou can bring every lie and fear before the LordGod is your refuge, your defender, and ever-present helpWaiting on God is trusting His timingScripture Focus: Exodus 14:14, Psalm 4:4, Psalm 37:7, Psalm 46:1, 5, 10, Psalm 68:5Encouragement for Moms:Mom, when everything feels overwhelming, you do not have to carry it all or solve it all today.

Psalm 46 ESV   God Is Our Fortress To the choirmaster. Of the Sons of Korah. According to Alamoth. A Song. 46 God is our refuge and strength,     a very present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear though the earth give way,     though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea, 3 though its waters roar and foam,     though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah 4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,     the holy habitation of the Most High. 5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved;     God will help her when morning dawns. 6 The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;     he utters his voice, the earth melts. 7 The Lord of hosts is with us;     the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah 8 Come, behold the works of the Lord,     how he has brought desolations on the earth. 9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;     he breaks the bow and shatters the spear;     he burns the chariots with fire. 10 “Be still, and know that I am God.     I will be exalted among the nations,     I will be exalted in the earth!” 11 The Lord of hosts is with us;     the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah   For more information about Redeemer Church Lubbock visit our website at redeemerlubbock.org.

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.
