3 The floods have lifted up, O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves. 4 The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, than the mighty waves of the sea. (Psalm 93:3–4, NKJV)
Jehovah God, clothed in majesty and girded with strength, reigns in eternity, high above the world He created (Psalm 93:1-2). Powerful flood waters rise as hurricanes and cyclones ravage coastal plains. Disaster strikes. Lives lost. Property destroyed. But, our God reigns on high, and is mightier than the strongest tidal surge. He appointed the boundaries of the seas; they will not prevail beyond measure (Psalm 104:5-9). The havoc of storms, floods, and other natural catastrophes bring into focus the sovereign power and majesty of God. Our confidence is in Him who never slumbers nor sleeps (Psalm 121:4). Most importantly, God’s mercy and truth endure through the dark night of sin’s terror, brightening the way to eternity (Colossians 1:13; Ephesians 5:8). Fellow Jesus, and have the light of life (John 8:12). He will see you through the storm, and land you safely on eternity’s shore.
