God is within her, she will not fall. God will help her at break of day. Psalm 46:5 (NIV)
There are two things to note about this Psalm. Included in the title is the word “alamoth” which indicates that this is the female part of a song. The whole Psalm is a declaration of God's deliverance and enduring power through any attack, circumstance or trial. As women (I'm a woman writing this) I believe God has designed us to declare and sing over our own lives, our situations and families – declare and sing of His goodness, deliverance and strength.
Women reading this, be encouraged that no matter what you're going through, God is within you – rise up and declare his enduring power over you and yours.
The second thing to note about this verse is that the ‘she' is the city of God, or rather His people, His kingdom. We are collectively the bride of Christ, His beloved, of whom Jesus lived, died and rose again for.
Romans 8:11 says “the same power that rose Christ from dead now lives within you.” So for you individually, man or woman, Christ is within you… And even though you may face health problems, financial crisis, betrayal, hardship, or challenges… YOU WILL NOT FALL. And collectively, as the people of God, followers of Christ; He is in our midst… And for the great commission He has charged us all with, He goes before us, guards from behind and will empower us to fulfil our destinies. We will not fall.
Just like the sun breaks through the night, His help and hope will rise above any situation or circumstance designed to keep us in darkness. Love you guys. Have an amazing day.
