About this listen
What do you do when your world feels like it’s collapsing? In this powerful message from Psalm 46, Jeffrey Johnson addresses the fear, confusion, and instability we experience when life unravels—whether through personal tragedy, illness, financial hardship, or global uncertainty. Using the psalm’s vivid imagery of earthquakes, raging seas, and trembling mountains, he reminds us that even in the worst-case scenarios, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.”
This sermon centers on two anchoring truths: God is our present help and our future hope. When everything around us feels insecure, God remains near, steady, and unshaken. Our security is not found in circumstances, possessions, or earthly systems, but in the unchanging presence of the Lord. And beyond today’s trials, we are given the promise of a future that cannot be shaken—a coming kingdom where war, sorrow, and suffering will cease forever.
With pastoral warmth and biblical clarity, Johnson calls believers to “be still and know” that God is in control. In the midst of chaos, we can stand firm—not because the ground beneath us is stable, but because the God who holds us never moves.
