46 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. 2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah. 4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High (Psalm 46:1-4).
Since God is sovereign, He is where we should turn for strength and help. When we take refuge in God, there is nothing that can ultimately overcome us. Verse 4 mentions the City of God. The City of God is where God’s presence is permanent. It is a place of sanctuary and peace, a place that will nourish and feed our souls. The river is a river of life, everlasting and holy. When we come into the presence of God, we are recipients of God’s strength and we abide in Him. To abide in Him is to be fed by the river of life. Drink from river of life, making glad the holy City of the Most High God.
