(Psa 46:10) “Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”

In Ps 46:8-11, one reference indicates that this section of verses is an exhortation to reflect upon the marvelous deliverance from wars and persecutions ( Physical and Spiritual), and learn the lesson and to become more reliant upon the Almighty creator and keeper of our souls.

Ps 46 expresses that God Almighty is more than capable of supplying for the needs of his servants and children, along with being able to protect what is rightfully his. When we are moving along inside the frenzied world, and our focus has become lost, even mildly, when we come to a point of no distraction and regain our focus on the progenitor of our very being, our strength comes back and focus becomes realigned. This will also help us realize if we need the help of others outside of ourselves, leading to whatever is necessary for our re-focus on reality.

(Psa 46:11 KJV)  “The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.”

Being still will also help us in taking shelter in the one who is strong enough to keep us safe from the evil one who wishes us nothing good, and from the storms and waves of this world that would drag us down.

(Psa 46:6 – 9 KJV)  The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth. He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.

Jehovah God reminds us and warns our enemies at the same instance of what he’s capable of, bringing peace and salvation to His people along with death and destruction to His enemies. This act alone brings reconciliation and harmony among people and therefore throughout the earth in which His people reside.
