Promises of Peace #1

 
What an appropriate verse for the day with widespread flood warnings all around us! Psalm 29:
10 The Lord sits enthroned over the flood;
    the Lord sits enthroned as king forever.
11 May the Lord give strength to his people!
    May the Lord bless his people with peace
!
We were in the earlier verses of this psalm last month, when we were learning to listen to the voice of the Lord, which speaks loud and clear through His Word, His Son, and His Spirit.  This closing stanza shouts with His sovereignty as the main reason we can have peace in the midst of the floods and storms of life. When (not if) those storms come, and the waters rise around us, we will find our Lord and ourselves on solid rock, where we will find strength, and the peace that says: "all will be well." Every time. Even if everything around us is washed away, He's not going anywhere.
