The Psalmist tells us in Psalm 46:1 that “God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.” This is a favorite expression with the psalmist in his effort to describe God as affording a place of safety for His people in time of trouble. (Psalm 14:6; 62:7, 8). We are told that the word refuge is from a verb which means to flee and then comes to mean a place to which people flee in times of danger. So God is to us in times of spiritual danger what the walls of a fortress would mean to a soldier in times of attack. To say that Jehovah is our strength is simply to say that He is the source of strength in time of temptation or when we are unable by our own wisdom and strength to do His will. We have the affirmation that god is a help in trouble. All men have their trouble at one time or another during life, so all men need God. This suggests something of the power of God; He is able to help all people at the same time. His resources are not to be exhausted by the multitude of requirements of the people who call upon his name. There is no limitation to the kind of trouble He is able to help in any and all kinds of trouble known to mankind. Furthermore, God is a pres ent help. This means that He is near, He can help you at the time you need help. God is not limited in time, space, or distance. This is proof of the omnipresence of God (Psalml39:7). He is here with us, but He is just as near to the man in China, Africa and India as He is near to us. This Psalm was not written for Americans alone, so God is as much a present help to the people of one nation as He is to others. Psalm 45:18 says, “Jehovah is night unto all them that call upon him.” God is a very present help. This word is used to qualify and intensify the idea of God being a present, accessible help. The use of this word encourages us to call on Him for help! The fortress would do the soldiers no good if it is not accessible, but God is not only accessible, He is very accessible; not to a part of humanity, but to all of mankind! The need for a place of refuge, notice Psalm 61:3 “For you have been a shelter for me. A strong tower from the enemy. ’’All men realize the need of a refuge, from What Does The Bible Say About... James Earnhardt Evangelist Church of Christ their enemies. All of us need refuge from worry. The aged are especially in need of this blessing, youth is inclined to be hopeful when there is no basis for hope but aged people are prone to worry where there is no basis for anxiety. The Lord has told us to cast our cares upon him because He cares for His own. We are to be anxious in nothing - don’t worry about anything but let your request be known to God, and you will have peace that” passeth understanding”. (Phil. 4:6, 7).
