Day 5: Psalm 46 – God is with us

At first glance, what do you feel are the overall themes about God?

The psalmist portrays the world in chaos. What particular things are falling apart? And why might this be the case?

“The LORD Almighty is with us” is repeated in verses 7 and 11. In the same way, ‘Immanuel’ is a word used to describe Jesus at his birth. It means ‘God with us’ (Matt 1:18-25). How is it comforting to know that God sent Jesus into this chaotic world?

Check out briefly what Jesus went through to be “exalted among the nations” (v10). Read Philippians 2:6-11
