The psalmist of Psalm 46 proclaims that “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble,” so His people need not fear even under the most catastrophic circumstances. This psalm contrasts the chaos and raging of the nations during the time of Tribulation judgment with the glorious hope of the Millennial Kingdom. Concluding with God’s command to “Be still, and know that I am God”—as He will be exalted among the nations—the psalm affirms that “The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge,” bringing comfort and peace to believers who trust in Him amid any trouble.
In Psalm 27:1-6, David declares with bold confidence that even when the wicked attack or an army encamps against him, his heart does not fear because he trusts in God’s protection and past deliverances. David’s singular desire is to dwell in the house of the Lord all his days, where in times of trouble, the Lord hides David in the secret place of His tabernacle, and sets him high upon a rock, above his enemies. David responds with worship—offering sacrifices of joy and singing praises to the Lord—modeling the comfort, security, and confident faith available to believers who take refuge in God.
