Psalm 46:4-6

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.

How do some Christians maintain such patience? They seem to endure the pain of life while maintaining a humble look and joyful disposition. You may be blessed enough to know a saint like that in real life, but many of us only read about them in books. These verses hold out the key to being just such a conqueror yourself. 

Those holy people are just like this city of God. The Lord is in with them. He has made them glad and makes them so steady, they can’t be moved. When you know Jesus, God has become your holy habitation. The only way the enemy can take you down is to hide this unbelievable truth from you. Trust in the Lord!

Prayer prompt: Lord, help me to look to Your strength so I will have confidence to fight in Your Name.
