God Is Our Fortress 46 To the choirmaster. Of a the Sons of Korah. According to b Alamoth. 1 A Song. 1 God is our c refuge and strength, a very d present 2 help in e trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear f though the earth gives way, though the mountains be moved into g the heart of the sea, 3 though h its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah 4 There is i a river whose streams make glad j the city of God, the holy k habitation of the Most High. 5 l God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns. 6 m The nations rage, the kingdoms totter; he n utters his voice, the earth o melts. 7 p The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah 8 q Come, behold the works of the Lord , how he has brought desolations on the earth. 9 r He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; he s breaks the bow and shatters the spear; t he burns the chariots with fire. 10 u “Be still, and know that I am God. v I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” 11 p The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.

Sermon notes

The LORD of hosts is with us Introduction This refrain is repeated; it's the big idea LORD of hosts? What does that mean? There are three verses - and even though we don't know quite what it meant, selah marks a structure of some kind. 1. Because God is our strength, we will not fear (v1-3) We won't fear things that are genuinely terrifying Because of who God is and his well-provenness, his 'very much found in trouble'-ness 2. God will act for the sake of his people (v4-7) He will comfort v4 He will be with us and preserve us v5 He will help us tomorrow as well as today v5b He will overcome the world v6-7 . He has done this in Jesus. 3. God, the bringer of peace, will be praised (v8-11) Behold his works and strengthen your faith v8 He makes peace, definitive peace v9 Know this - God is exalted in Jesus through his cross, among the nations, today v10 This is our confidence v11 Wrap-up We will not fear because of who God is; he has acted for his people in Jesus; he is bringing peace through him and so let us praise him.
