Our faith in God and his promises must regularly be renewed. Especially in seasons and events of our lives that cause us legitimate fears and concerns. Psalm 46 is a song that has been sung by the people of God for centuries to renew and refocus their faith.

The wilderness. The desert. A hostile, dangerous and uncomfortable place. It is a surprising place to find the people God has rescued from slavery with the promise and hope of a new life. But that’s where we are. Let’s consider how God sustains us in our wilderness experience.

God is always up to something and always finishes what He starts. Be encouraged today that our Heavenly Father has no projects, promises or people that He is not actively pursuing to their completion.

A genuine life of faith is driven by wisdom from above.  James helps us plug into God’s wisdom by contrasting the two types of wisdom available to us every day. One type produces self-focused instability. The other, completeness and peace. Which wisdom you embrace makes a huge difference.
