God Is Our Refuge and Strength (Lecture)

This lecture, God is Our Refuge and Strength, takes its theme from Psalm 46 and explores how believers can find stability and hope in a world full of turmoil. Against the backdrop of troubled nations, personal trials, and the uncertainty of life, the message emphasizes that God alone is a secure refuge and a present help in times of need. Drawing from vivid scriptural images of stormy seas, shaking mountains, and roaring waves, the speaker contrasts the fear and anxiety of the world with the calm assurance offered by God’s presence. Through examples from scripture—such as Jesus calming the storm, the faith of Ruth, and the endurance of Paul—the lesson shows that God is both a shield and a stronghold for His people. The exhortation concludes with a call to set aside the distractions of the world, to renew our trust in God, and to lift our vision to the coming kingdom, when His glory will fill the earth and His people will dwell in safety under His everlasting arms.
