"GOD IS IN THE STORM"

IN MY DISTRESS I CALLED UPON THE LORD,

AND CRIED TO GOD FOR HELP,

HE HEARD MY VOICE OUT OF HIS TEMPLE,

AND MY CRY FOR HELP CAME INTO HIS EARS.


THEN  THE EARTH SHOOK AND QUAKED

AND THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE MOUNTAINS

WERE TREMBLING. AND WERE SHAKEN,

HE WAS ANGRY.

SMOKE WENT OUT OF HIS NOSTRILS,

AND FIRE FROM HIS MOUTH DEVOURED

COALS WERE KINDLED BY IT,

HE BOWED THE HEAVEN ALSO, AND CAME DOWN.

WITH THICK DARKNESS UNDER HIS FEET.

HE RODE UPON CHERUB AND FLEW;

AND HE SPED UPON THE WINGS OF THE WIND.

HE MADE DARKNESS  HIS HIDING PLACE,

HIS CANOPY AROUND HIM.

DARKNESS OF WATERS, THICK CLOUDS OF DARKNESS

OF SKIES,

FROM THE BRIGHTNESS BEFORE HIM PASSED HIS THICK CLOUDS,

HAILSTONES AND CORDS OF FIRE.

THE LORD ALSO THUNDERED IN THE HEAVENS,

AND THE MOST HIGH UTTERED HIS VOICE,

HAILSTONES AND COALS OF FIRE.

HE SENT OUT HIS ARROWS, AND SCATTERED THEM,

AND LIGHTHING FLASHES IN ABUNDANCE AND ROUTED THEM.

THEN CHANNELS OF WATER APPEARED,

AND THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD WERE LAID BARE

AT THY REBUKE.

AT THE BLAST OF THE BREATH OF THY NOSTRILS,

HE SENT FROM ON HIGH,

HE TOOK ME OUT OF THE MANY WATERS,

HE DELIVERED ME FROM MY STRONG ENEMY.

AND FROM THOSE WHO HATED ME, FOR THEY WERE TO

MIGHTY FOR ME.

THEY CONFRONTED ME IN  MY CALAMITY,

BUT THE LORD WAS MY STAY.

HE BROUGHT ME FORTH ALSO INTO A BROAD PLACE;

HE RESCUED ME, BECAUSE HE DELIGHTED IN ME.

PSALM 18:6-19

DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; WHAT STORM ARE YOU IN TODAY ? IS THERE ONE COMING THAT YOU ANTICIPATE WILL BE TO STRONG FOR YOU TO OVERCOME?

WHAT ARE THE MANY WATERS, THAT ARE CAUSING YOU TO DROWN IN DISTRESS,FEAR AND DOUBT.

I CHALLENGE YOU TO SEE GOD, RIDING THE STORM, COMING TO YOU IN THE VERY TUMULT THAT WOULD DESTROY YOU, AND IN THAT SAME STORM. HE WILL RESCUE YOU, AND BRING YOU INTO A BROAD PLACE.

LIKE THE DAVID; YOU WILL SHOUT; "HE DELIGHTED IN ME!"
