"The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted." (Psalm 46:6)
The word for, "moved," in our text means, "to waver; by implication to slip, shake, fall, be fallen in decay, be out of course." We don't have to just look at the world in our life time to see this. Observe the history of the world.
It is the wonderful truth of the Economy of our Father---- "His Voice," is Jesus Christ. Though some sophisticates may think such, this is not oversimplified theology. "His Name is called The Word of God," and whenever the Living Triune God speaks it is the Sweetness of the Breath of Jesus Christ. After Jesus' resurrection, the disciples were born of the Holy Spirit, the Breath of God, by His, "voice." It is written, "Then He breathed on them and said to them, 'Receive the Holy Spirit.'" Oh, the Blessed Trinity, Mystery of mysteries, Life of life, Joy of joy. Jesus, "breathed... and said," and the Holy Spirit imparted, came to live in the lives of those very frightened, bungling, doubters (sort of like me).
The Word/Breath of Jesus heals, delivers, sustains, encourages, and more, "the earth melt[s]"-- such power in such speaking. If we listen carefully today, the "Voice" of God will melt the demonic forces attempting to discourage and defeat us. Of His Voice, Psalm 29 says, "The voice of the LORD is over the waters....The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty. The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars, yes, the LORD splinters the cedars of Lebanon....The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire. The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness....The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth...." Then the great finale-- "The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood, and the LORD Jesus Christ sits as King forever."
Father, in Jesus' Name, I just thank You for all of this. Amen.
