PJP2 PROLOG - 161013 - PROLOG Focus: Isaiah 37:20......BE STILL - Psalm 62:8 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."TRUST In Him At ALL Times, O people; Pour Out your Heart Before Him; God Is A Refuge For us. Selah"..... PJP2 PROLOG POST - 161013 - BE STILL - Isaiah 37:20 (NIV/emphasis added/jaj)...."(King Hezekiah Prayed)....'Now, O Lord our God, Deliver us from his hand, So That ALL kingdoms on earth May Know That You Alone Lord Are God.".... What a Concept....BE STILL....that is indeed a hard-one for me to grasp (and accomplish). Those of you who know me know, though I may seem shy and bashful....for me to BE STILL is NOT an easy skill to master. As we look at today's PROLOG POST 161013....Isaiah 37:20....this is in the midst of King Hezekiah's Prayer to YAHWEH with regards to the evil King of Assyria (Sennacherib)'s insulting threats and diatribe for the Assyrians' preparations to flatten Jerusalem and destroy Judah. I can not begin to think what was roaring through Hezekiah's noggin. I mean as the Head Honyack, the safety and existence of his 'kingdom' rested solely on his shoulders, right? Then Sennacherib tosses in there the 'fact' that he had wiped away several other 'kingdoms' and those 'kingdoms' 'gods' had not slowed Sennacherib and the Assyrian War Machine down a bit. So, I'm betting that Hezekiah was having a hard-time with the "BE STILL" directive. Praise God, though, our Lord and Savior Is Indeed GOD.....And He, He Alone (AH-HA) IS GOD that Will Fight For us..... And just like our THANKS POW (1 Peter 2:1)....we even See In God's Doing Good (that is His Response to Hezekiah's Prayer)...By Delivering Judah (as is Revealed in Isaiah 37:36-38) God's Witness to His Love and Grace Towards His children..... That, Indeed, is a Strong Encouragement for us to practice God's "BE STILL" Guidance in our own Lives..... So....my Prayer for us today would simply be....O Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, we Praise You for Your Ever Present Being in our Lives. Lord Jesus Teach us to Better Grasp Your BE STILL Principle. Holy Spirit, Guide us in our Daily Lives, Learning and Leaning on You as we Strive to BE STILL. Father God, Thank You, as our Heavenly Father, That You Have The Patience to Be With us as we squirm and squiggle in our trying to BE STILL With You. Lord Jesus, we Lift Up our Prayers and Praise in Your Holy Name.....Amen and Amen....jaj Psalm 46:10 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."BE STILL And Know That I AM God. I Will Be Exalted among the nations, I Will Be Exalted in the earth!".... Psalm 62:5 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."For God Alone, O my Soul, Wait In SILENCE, For my HOPE Is From Him.".... 1 Samuel 12:16 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Now, Therefore STAND STILL and See This Great Thing That The Lord Will Do Before your eyes."....
