Consider how a mould works. Whatever is poured into the mould takes its shape. The culture we choose to surround ourselves in constantly presses us into its mould using media, pressure, and fear. But God says and shows you that you don’t have to fit that shape anymore. Jesus came not only to save us from sin, but to restore us to truth.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Philippians 4:8 (ESV)


Dear Heavenly Father, be my guide and protect me from these things that surround me that I do not understand or that influence me in ways that are not from You. Lord I want to be and act as close to You as You’ve always wanted Your children to be. Lord give the strength to stand against the evil in this world, the distractions and influences. Help me to not fear and worry about these issues that continue to affect everything around us. Thank you Lord for Your protection, direction, and love. In Jesus Name Amen

Living With Eternal Perspective

man playing a piano

Text: 2 Corinthians 4:16–18; Colossians 3:1–4

Seeing Beyond the Moment

It is said of one of the famous composers that he had a rebellious son who used to come in late at night after his father and mother had gone to bed. And before going to his own room, he would go to his father’s piano and slowly, as well as loudly, play a simple scale, all but the final note. Then leaving the scale uncompleted, he would retire to his room. Meanwhile the father, hearing the scale minus the final note, would writhe on his bed, his mind unable to relax because the scale was unresolved. Finally, in dismay, he would stumble down the stairs and hit the previously unstruck note. Only then would his mind surrender to sleep once again.

George MacDonald, Restoring Your Spiritual Passion.

One of the greatest dangers for believers when times are hard is not persecution or hardship it is short-sightedness. When we focus on what we can see, feel, or immediately experience, discouragement grows and hope shrinks. The Paul the apostle wrote to believers who were familiar with and lived through suffering, opposition, and loss. Paul breaks it down and speaks with remarkable clarity and confidence. His secret was not denial of pain but an eternal perspective having the ability to interpret present hardship in light of eternal truth.

Have you ever noticed that different situations will look depending on where you’re standing? When we were a child watching a storm we’d only see dark clouds and lightning, but if we are a pilot flying above it we will see clear skies and sunshine. Our perspective doesn’t change the storm, but it changes how we understand it.

The apostle Paul writes to believers who knew suffering firsthand, but he spoke with confidence and hope. His strength did not come from having easier circumstances, but because he held an eternal perspective, the ability to view present hardship through the lens of forever. Paul shows us that how we see determines how we endure. When we place eternity in the front we frame our thinking, today’s trials no longer will define us.

Eternal Perspective Sustains the Inner Person

“Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.” (2 Corinthians 4:16)

Paul begins by recognizing reality. He highlights the outward person, our physical bodies, circumstances, and resources are wasting away. Bodies age. Energy fades. Circumstances take their toll. But while the outer self declines, God is quietly renewing the inner person.Through time, pressure, and hardship leaving scars. The Bible does not ignore this reality. In this verse Paul contrasts our outward decline with our inward renewal.

Think of a home under renovation. When we look at the outside it may look worse before it looks better, the dust, noise, and torn walls. But inside, there’s something stronger and more beautiful being built. An Eternal perspective reminds us that God’s primary work is not cosmetic; it is transformational.

Having an eternal viewpoint allows believers to understand that God is doing His deepest work inside us, not just the things around us. While our situations may drain our strength, God renews faith, character, and hope daily. When we limit our perspective to what we can measure, we lose heart our faith and hope. When we realize that God’s greatest works are usually invisible, our discouragement and dismay will lose its grip.

As a believer our hope is not found in preserving the temporary but in being renewed for eternity. When a believer only focuses on what is they can see, discouragement grows. But when we place our trust in God it will renew us daily on the inside, we discover strength that unfortunate circumstances cannot steal.

Suffering

Present Suffering Is Interpreted Through Eternal Weight

“For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.” (2 Corinthians 4:17)

Paul’s language here is distinct. He does not minimize suffering by calling it imaginary; he reframes it by comparing it to eternity. Calling suffering “light” seems odd until we understand the comparison. Paul is not comparing pain to comfort; he is measuring it against eternity. The use of these words carry weight in the bible and conveys significance, substance, and lasting value. Paul tells us that the present suffering is on one side of the scale and eternal glory on the other, and eternity overwhelms the balance.

Imagine carrying around a backpack filled with rocks. The backpack feels heavy, until you compare it to the weight of a freight train. Paul sets up our suffering on one side of the scale and eternal glory on the other. He highlights how eternity overwhelms the balance. When we understand that suffering is temporary and glory is eternal, having unshakable endurance becomes possible without despair.

Suffering, in God’s presence, is not wasted. It is achieving something. Our trials will refine faith, deepen our trust, strengthen our dependence, and shape us for glory. Having an eternal perspective teaches us that pain is not pointless, and hardship is not final. Living through suffering is not meaningless; it is productive. It is like a weights used when training, resistance builds strength.

Faith Fixes Its Focus on the Unseen

“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” (2 Corinthians 4:18)

Perspective is a matter of focus. Paul does not say we should ignore what is seen, he says we need to refuse to fix our eyes on it. Our temporary surroundings constantly demand attention: news cycles, financial pressure, health concerns, and cultural instability. The things we do not see, God’s promises, Christ’s reign, and the coming Kingdom, are more real and more permanent than anything we see with our eyes. An eternal perspective will train believers to evaluate life through God’s promises rather than current appearances. Our faith chooses where to rest its gaze.

The things we see in this world constantly demands our attention: headlines, fears, pressures, and an overabundance of social media opinions. Having faith chooses where to rest your gaze. The unseen realities of God’s promises, Christ’s reign, eternal life become more real and more lasting than what we can touch. What we focus on shapes what we fear, what we hope for, and how we live. When we fix our eyes on temporary things, fear and anxiety grows. If you have ever walked a narrow path understands this, if you look down, you stumble; look ahead, and you keep moving. When you fix your eyes on eternal truth, seeds are planted and peace takes root.

Eternal Perspective Reorients Our Identity

“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above… For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.” (Colossians 3:1–3)

Paul refreshes believers memories that eternal perspective begins with identity. Paul reminds us again that our true identity is not found in surrounding circumstances but in Christ. If we accept the reality of Christ and who He is, our lives no longer belong solely to this world. Our true life is “hidden with Christ,” it’s securely protected by God Himself. When we are “hidden” with Christ this means we are secure, protected, and held beyond the reach of this world.

Truth liberates believers from living as though this world, and our current situation is all there is. Think about a valuable document that is locked in a fireproof safe. The building around the safe may shake and burn, but what is hidden remains secure. Just like the document in the safe, the believer’s life is safeguarded in Christ. When we secure our identity is and anchor ourselves in Christ, success and suffering no longer defines us. We live our lives from eternity backward, not from the next crisis forward. If we always remember who we belong to, the chaos, fear, anxiety of the world loses its power to define us.

Glory Is the Final Destination

“When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.” (Colossians 3:4)

An eternal perspective ends with hope. Living the eternal perspective does not make believers passive; it makes them faithful. History is moving toward a conclusion, Christ’s return. The believer’s future is not uncertainty but glory. Every sacrifice, trial, and faithful act finds its meaning there. We endure today because we know how the story ends.

It’s like having a GPS it makes every journey easier when you know where you’re going. A long road is bearable when home is at the end. Our Christian story ends in glory not defeat. Christ is returning, and believers will share in His victory. Always remember that being a christian and having an eternal perspective does not remove hardship, but it assures us that suffering is not the final chapter.


Conclusion: Living Today in Light of Forever

Eternal perspective does not remove hardship, but it redeems it. It lifts our eyes, strengthens our faith, steadies our hearts and anchors our hope. When we live with eternity in view, we discover that today’s struggles, and trials are temporary and shaping tomorrow’s glory and Christ Himself is our reward.

Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, I come before You as one of Your people, living in a world that often feels heavy, uncertain, and overwhelming. You see the outward pressures I carry, the weariness of our bodies, and the burdens of our hearts. Yet You remind me tonight that while the outer person may be wasting away, You are renewing me inwardly day by day.

Lord, lift me eyes to see beyond what is temporary. Help me not to fix my gaze on what is seen, but on what is unseen, on Your promises, Your presence, and Your eternal Kingdom. When suffering feels close and answers seem to feel far away, anchor my heart in the truth that my present trials are not wasted, but are preparing me for a glory that far outweighs them all.

Father, forgive me for the times when I have allowed fear, anxiety, or the voices of this world to shape my perspective more than Your Word. Teach me to set my heart and mind on the things above, where Christ is seated at Your right hand. Remind me that my life is hidden with Christ, secure, held, and never forgotten.

For those who are weary tonight, bring renewal. For those who are discouraged, restore hope. For those who are suffering in silence, let Your Spirit be near and gentle. Give me strength not just to endure, but to trust, to believe that You are working even when I cannot see it. I place my life, my struggles, and my future in Your hands. In Jesus Name Amen

Do Not Be Afraid: God’s Most Repeated Command

General Patton

Text: Isaiah 41:10; Matthew 6:25–34

Fear’s Quiet Influence on the Human Heart

Fear shapes decisions, obedience, and daily living, often unnoticed

During World War II, a military governor met with General George Patton in Sicily. When he praised Patton highly for his courage and bravery, the general replied, “Sir, I am not a brave man. . . The truth is, I am an utter craven coward. I have never been within the sound of gunshot or in sight of battle in my whole life that I wasn’t so scared that I had sweat in the palms of my hands.” Years later, when Patton’s autobiography was published, it contained this significant statement by the general: “I learned very early in my life never to take counsel of my fears.”

Fear is one of the oldest and most powerful forces that helps shape human behavior. It impacts not only how people react to danger, but how they make decisions, raise families, spend money, speak. Whether or not we remain silent and even how we serve God. Fear hardly ever announces itself loudly. Fear will disguise itself as caution, overplanning, control, or even what we call “being realistic.” If we read the Bible we will see throughout Scripture, there is one command echoes again and again from Genesis to Revelation: “Do not be afraid.”

God’s Command Is Grounded in His Presence

“Fear not, for I am with you” (Isaiah 41:10)

In Isaiah 41:10, God is speaking people that are surrounded by political threat, uncertainty, and exile. He does not deny the reality of their circumstances. Instead, He says, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God.” We can see that the foundation of courage in the Bible is not confidence in yourself, but confidence in God’s nearness. Fear will always lose its power when we makes God’s presence the dominant reality in our minds and hearts.

Promises That Answer Our Deepest Fears

Strength for weakness, help for helplessness, stability for uncertainty

Isaiah 41:10 continues with, “I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” When we study this we will see that each phrase confronts a specific fear. Strength answers exhaustion. Help answers helplessness. Upholding answers instability. God did not put these in the Bible to be emotional affirmations; these are covenant promises. He shows us that when everything feels uncertain, God promises to be the One who sustains His people.

knight fighting a dragon

Courage in the Midst of Real Danger

Faith illustrated through Scripture and history, not denial of reality

When looking through history we’ll see that it offers countless examples of this truth. In the early years of the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther faced constant threats; political pressure, religious opposition, and the possibility of execution. With everything around him Luther famously wrote the hymn “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God,” drawing from Psalm 46. Martin Luther wrote this hymn not in a time of safety, but in a time of fear. Luther’s courage was unshakable not from the denial of danger, but from confidence that God was an unshakable refuge.

Jesus Confronts Anxiety at Its Root

Misplaced focus and misplaced trust (Matthew 6:25–30)

Jesus speaks about fear again in Matthew 6, He focuses His attention on anxiety in daily life; food, clothing, and the future. He tells us, “Do not be anxious about your life.” Jesus shows us that anxiety is misplaced focus. Fear will magnify what we lack and minimizes who God is. To help us correct this, Jesus points to creation itself: “the birds of the air and the lilies of the field. They neither store nor strive, yet God sustains them.”

The Futility of Fear and the Illusion of Control

Why anxiety feels productive but produces nothing

Jesus asks a question that today still speaks to modern hearts: “Which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?” When we look at it anxiety feels productive, but it produces nothing, maybe some heartburn. Worry does not solve tomorrow’s problems, it overwhelming steals today’s peace. Fear is the promise of control, but delivers exhaustion and stress.

Seeking First the Kingdom Reorders the Heart

Putting God back at the center of life and priorities

There is a very simple example that makes this clear. Imagine that you are sitting in a rocking chair, constantly moving. But where are you going? It never takes you anywhere. This is what fear does, it always keeps us busy, restless, and worn out, never moving us forward. It never helps us build our faith.

Jesus’ final words concluded by calling His followers to reordered priorities: “Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness.” Fear grows and overwhelms when God is pushed to the margins of our life. Our faith grows when God is placed at the center of our lives. When we seek the Kingdom first it does not eliminate hardship; it reframes it. We are reminded that our lives are in the hands of a Father that knows what we need before we ask.

Faith That Speaks Louder Than “What If”

Choosing trust even when outcomes are uncertain

Corrie ten Boom, a survivor of the horrors of a Nazi concentration camp, once said, “Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.” Her words were not theoretical. They were created through suffering. Even when it is the darkest, faith remained her anchor because she trusted the faithfulness of God.

Biblical faith is not pretending everything is fine; it is choosing trust when everything is uncertain. Fear says, “What if?” Faith says, “Even if.” Even if the economy shifts, even if health falters, and even if the future is unclear. God remains faithful.

An Invitation to Live Free From Fear’s Grip

From self-reliance to God-dependence; from survival to obedience

His command “Do not be afraid” is fully an invitation to move from self-reliance to God-dependence, from anxiety to assurance, and from being in a survival mode to faithful obedience. Fear may be knocking, but when surrounding yourself with faith it does not mean you have to answer. When God is with us, fear no longer has the final word.


Prayer


Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You that Your mercies are new every morning and that great is Your faithfulness (Lamentations 3:22–23). You go before us and You are with me; You will never leave me nor forsake me (Deuteronomy 31:8).

Please quiet our hearts. Guard our minds. Teach us to trust You above every fear, every wall, and anxiety. We receive Your peace today. Nothing that is ahead is hidden from You. Lord, I commit this year to You, I am trusting You with all my heart and leaning not on my own understanding (Proverbs 3:5–6). I acknowledge that all of my plans are subject to Your will, and I say with humility, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that” (James 4:15). Order my steps according to Your Word (Psalm 119:133).

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me (Psalm 51:10). Transform me by the renewing of my mind, so that I may discern what is good, pleasing, and perfect in Your will (Romans 12:2). Let Your Word be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path in every decision I face (Psalm 119:105).

We ask for Your peace to guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Heal the brokenhearted and bind up my wounds (Psalm 147:3). Teach me to forgive as I have been forgiven (Colossians 3:13), and to walk in love, just as Christ loved (Ephesians 5:2).

Prepare me for every season this year brings. When trials come, help me to count it joy, knowing You are producing endurance in me (James 1:2–4). When blessings come, keep me humble and thankful, remembering that every good and perfect gift comes from You (James 1:17).

I will seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, trusting that what I need will be provided (Matthew 6:33). I dedicate this year to You, asking that my life will bring You glory in all that I do (1 Corinthians 10:31).

I pray this with confidence in the name of Jesus, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). In Jesus Name Amen.

“Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.” John 1:12

Peace in a World Addicted to Fear

addressing government

Text: John 14:27; Philippians 4:6–7

The 24-Hour News Cycle

During his years as premier of the Soviet Union, Nikita Khrushchev denounced many of the policies and atrocities of Joseph Stalin. Once, as he censured Stalin in a public meeting, Khrushchev was interrupted by a shout from a heckler in the audience. “You were one of Stalin’s colleagues. Why didn’t you stop him?” “Who said that?” roared Khrushchev. An agonizing silence followed as nobody in the room dared move a muscle. Then Khrushchev replied quietly, “Now you know why.”  Today in the Word, July 13, 1993

Fear has become the currency of our culture. News cycles thrive on it. Social media amplifies it. Anxiety has become normal. Yet Jesus speaks words that stand in contrast to the noise. The world’s peace is circumstantial. Christ’s peace is foundational. Bad news once traveled slowly. Today, it never sleeps. Phones buzz. Headlines scroll. Social media amplifies outrage and anxiety. Fear is no longer occasional, it’s constant.

Jesus spoke the words of John 14:27 on the night before the cross. The disciples were not calm; they are confused, afraid, and unsettled. Their whole world is about to collapse. Yet Jesus does not offer explanations, He offers peace. Fear is not new. Every generation believes theirs is the most unstable. Scripture reminds us God has spoken into fearful times before.

What does Jesus say to people living on the edge of uncertainty?

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you.

The peace Jesus offers is not a concept; it is a gift. The word Jesus uses for peace (eiréné, ay-RAY-nay) carries the meaning of wholeness, harmony, well being, completeness, a settled confidence, harmony, and well-being. He never promised the absence of trouble; He is promising the presence of Himself.

Jesus then makes a striking distinction: “Not as the world gives do I give to you.” (John 14:27) The world’s peace is fragile. It depends on surrounding circumstances lining up just right. Worldly peace requires control, certainty, and comfort. When and if those things are threatened, peace evaporates and fear rushes in. Christ’s peace is different. It has nothing to do with what is happening around us, but everything to do with who is reigning above us.

This is why Jesus follows this up with a command: “Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not be afraid.” This is not saying there will never be danger; it is an invitation to trust. Peace is not automatic, it is something we receive and need to guard. For example, Rome promised “peace” through power, control, and force. Pax Romana meant silence through domination. But underneath was violence, fear, and instability. Worldly peace numbs symptoms. Christ’s peace heals the soul.

Jesus does not say, “Everything will work out.”
He says, “My peace I give you.”

Peace is not circumstantial; it is relational.

biblical man in prison writing on a scroll

Anxiety Redirected

The Apostle Paul highlights this truth in Philippians 4:6–7. While he was sitting prison, Paul commands believers, “Do not be anxious about anything.” This is not unrealistic optimism. You read that right he was sitting in prison for sharing what he believed, Paul knows suffering. He knows and understands pressure. Through all of this he understands that anxiety is a signal, not the solution.

While sitting in a cold ancient prison, they were not like ours today. Prison in biblical times did not have entertainment, worry if you had food allergies or if you were comfortable. When he was sitting in this, living it, instead of allowing anxiety to dominate, Paul gives us clear instruction. “In every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” Through the chaos, overwhelming fear and anxiety we told to redirected these situations into prayer. Worry becomes worship. We turn this fear into a conversation with God.

When we read this we can see that Paul says pray in every situation. There is no category too small or too overwhelming for God. Thanksgiving is not denial of hardship; it is recognition of God’s faithfulness in the midst of it. Having gratitude anchors us in what God has already done while we trust Him for His plans that we cannot yet see. Jeremiah 29:11

With Jesus the result is not changed circumstances, but changed hearts. “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” This peace does not come from logic. It is not the result of everything making sense. It will usually show up before circumstances change. That is why it surpasses our understanding, it cannot be explained, only experienced.The word guard is a military term which means means to stand watch, to protect, and to prevent intrusion. God’s peace stands watch over our inner life. It protects our thoughts, stabilizes our emotions, and keeps fear from taking control.

It guards:

  • The heart — your emotions, fears, and desires
  • The mind — your thoughts, imagination, and inner dialogue

And it does so in Christ Jesus. Peace is not found in techniques; it is found in a Person. This means peace is not something you manufacture it is something you receive. When prayer replaces panic, when trust replaces control, God’s peace takes its post and stands watch over your spiritual life.

In a world addicted to fear, this kind of peace is not weakness, it is spiritual authority.

Man sitting in peacefulness

Living as Witnesses of Peace in a Fear-Driven World

Paul does not present peace as a private hidden emotional experience; he presents it as a public testimony of faith in Jesus. The peace of God is not meant to be concealed by us, it is meant to be seen through us, an out word statement of what He has done. In a world addicted to fear, peace becomes one of the clearest evidences that Christ is alive and reigning.

Jesus told His followers, “You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:14-16) Light does not argue with darkness, it overcomes it simply by being present. Just like peace which does not need to be loud to be powerful. Calm faith is like a light that stands out in a culture of panic.

Peace as a Countercultural Witness

Fear is contagious and panic spreads faster than truth. Entire culture can be driven by speculation, outrage, and worst-case scenarios. But peace is contagious too, just in a quieter manner.

When a believer responds differently to bad news, economic pressure, cultural upheaval, or personal loss, it causes people notice and ask questions. Not because Christians are, “better” or unaffected by hardship, it’s but because they are anchored in something deeper that is bigger than themselves or what is going on around them.

Biblical peace does not deny reality. It reframes it through faith. It says, “This is real, but God is greater.”

Historical Parallel: The Early Church in Crisis

In the second and third centuries, there were plagues that swept through the Roman Empire. They had entire cities emptied as people fled in fear. Even the Doctors of that time abandoned the sick. Yet historical accounts record that Christians stayed.

They cared for the dying. They buried the dead. They comforted the grieving this would at time come at the cost of their own lives.

Their peace was not rooted in survival it was rooted in resurrection hope. Their response changed history. Sociologists note that the explosive growth of the early church was not due to power or politics, but to visible hope in the face of death.

Peace became their apologetic.

Where Peace Shows Up Today

Peace is not proven in worship services it is proven in:

  • How we speak when others panic
  • How we treat people who disagree with us
  • How we face uncertainty without bitterness
  • How we trust God when outcomes are unclear

Peace does not mean passivity. It means confidence in God’s sovereignty, “God’s got this”.

When the church mirrors the world’s anxiety, it loses its voice. But when it reflects Christ’s peace, it becomes a refuge.

Something to Think About:

  • What do people observe in me when pressure rises?
  • Do my words amplify fear—or anchor hope?
  • Does my home feel like a place of peace?

Peace is not just something God gives us, it is something He displays through us. In a world focuses on fear, the quiet confidence of faith becomes a radical testimony. The church does not overcome fear by matching its volume, but by living in Christ’s peace.

Biblical peace is not denial.
It is confidence in God’s sovereignty.

Paul does not say “ignore your anxiety.”
He says, bring everything to God in prayer.

Peace comes when:

  • Prayer replaces panic
  • Trust replaces control
  • Gratitude replaces fear

Prayer

I acknowledge that all of my plans are subject to Your will, and I say with humility, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that” (James 4:15). Order my steps according to Your Word (Psalm 119:133).

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me (Psalm 51:10). Transform me by the renewing of my mind, so that I may discern what is good, pleasing, and perfect in Your will (Romans 12:2). Let Your Word be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path in every decision I face (Psalm 119:105).

We ask for Your peace to guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Heal the brokenhearted and bind up my wounds (Psalm 147:3). Teach me to forgive as I have been forgiven (Colossians 3:13), and to walk in love, just as Christ loved (Ephesians 5:2).

Prepare me for every season this year brings. When trials come, help me to count it joy, knowing You are producing endurance in me (James 1:2–4). When blessings come, keep me humble and thankful, remembering that every good and perfect gift comes from You (James 1:17).

I will seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, trusting that what I need will be provided (Matthew 6:33). I dedicate this year to You, asking that my life will bring You glory in all that I do (1 Corinthians 10:31).

I pray this with confidence in the name of Jesus, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). In Jesus Name Amen.

When Everything Shakes, God Remains

volcano

Scripture: Hebrews 12:26–28; Psalm 46

Introduction

Currently we are living in a time when it feels like everything is shaking. Nations are trembling. Economies feel uncertain. Families are under pressure. Even long-held beliefs seem to be questioned daily. Many people are asking, “What if anything can I trust anymore?”  

When an earthquake strikes, people will instinctively look for doorframes, foundations, and open spaces. When the earth is shaking, what matters most is not what looks strong, but what actually is. There are buildings that appear solid and can collapse if their foundations are weak.

The bible  tells us this is not new. God warns that there will be seasons when everything that can be shaken and will be shaken so that what cannot be shaken may remain. Spiritually, we are in an earthquake moment. Systems we have trusted, financial, political, cultural, even religious, are trembling and seem to be breaking down.

We are anxious because we tend to build our security on shiny things never designed to hold up when tested. Spiritually, we are in an earthquake moment. People are anxious because they built their security on things never designed to hold it. Scripture tells us this is not unexpected. God warned that shaking would come but not to destroy His people, but to reveal what can truly stand.

GOD USES SHAKING TO REVEAL FOUNDATIONS (Hebrews 12:26–27)

The writer of Hebrews highlights that there will come a moment when God will “shake not only the earth but also the heavens” (Hebrews 12:26). This language is not a poetic exaggeration it’s a theological reality. Throughout the Bible, shaking always accompanies divine intervention. At Sinai, the mountain trembled when God descended in power. At the resurrection, the earth shook as the stone was rolled away. Shaking signals that God is at work, removing what is temporary so that what is eternal may be revealed.

Hebrews 12:27 clarifies the purpose of the shaking: “so that what cannot be shaken may remain.” God is not trying to destroy His people; He is refining their foundation. The shaking exposes what we have trusted that was never meant to bear the weight of our hope—wealth, systems, leaders, cultural stability, even religious routine. When these things tremble, it reveals whether our faith rests in them or in God Himself.

Refuge

GOD REMAINS A REFUGE IN THE MIDST OF CHAOS (Psalm 46)

Gods truth is powerfully answered in Psalm 46. The writer of this psalm begins not with the denial of chaos but with a declaration of confidence: “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1). You can see that God is not described as a distant observer, but as being very present.

Even when the earth gives way and mountains fall into the sea, God remains our refuge, not because circumstances are calm, but because He is the same yesterday and today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8)

Psalm 46 does not promise a world without troubles; it promises we have a God who is unmovable within it. “The nations rage, the kingdoms totter; He utters His voice, the earth melts” (Psalm 46:6). The powers on earth will rise and fall, but when God speaks, all of creation responds. What feel so extremely overwhelming to us is still under His authority.

THE UNSHAKABLE KINGDOM WE ARE RECEIVING (Hebrews 12:28)

We can see in Hebrews 12:28 where it turns doctrine into devotion: “Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful.” As Christians our hope should not be rooted in the stability of the world, but in the permanence of God’s Kingdom. His Kingdom is not threatened by chaos, political turmoil, economic uncertainty, or cultural decline. Our hope has been established by Christ and secured through the blood and His resurrection, and will endure forever.

When we belong to this unshakable Kingdom that allows us to live with confidence even when circumstances collapse. Our gratitude becomes an act of faith, our worship becomes an anchor and our obedience becomes a declaration that our trust is not in what we see, but in the God who reigns above it all.

When everything seems to shake, God should never be our last resort, but should be and needs to be our sure foundation. It will never be a question of whether the world will shake; the Bible assures us that it will. The question is whether or not our lives are built on what can be shaken, or on the Kingdom that never will be.

HOW SHOULD WE RESPOND?

When the world shakes:

  • God is not panicking
  • God is not absent
  • God is not defeated

An anchor does not stop the storm, it keeps the ship from drifting. Faith doesn’t remove shaking, it keeps us steady. This is not a season to despair, it is a season to anchor deeper.

What’s being shaken may be:

  • False securities
  • Misplaced hope
  • Cultural idols
  • Shallow faith

But the Kingdom of God stands unshaken.
