“God [is] our refuge and strength, a very present help in
trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though
the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; [Though] the waters thereof
roar [and] be troubled, [though] the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.
Selah.” (Ps 46:1-3 AV)
This passage is a millennial passage. It speaks of the remnant escaping to the
wilderness under threat from the anti-Christ.
It speaks of them going off to be protected by the Messiah in the
wilderness while the judgements of the tribulation period are raging about
them. They will feel the tremors of the
earthquakes. They will feel the extreme
heat, the shortened days, the stars falling from the skies, etc. The will experience most of what the rest of
the world will experience. Yet, without
fear.
When this picture enters my mind, I imagine
the Jewish people trekking out of Jerusalem and Israel in the same manner they
did Egypt. The scene from The Ten
Commandments runs through my mind.
Millions of Hebrews, walking into the desert, yet singing their
psalms. Trumpets blow, priests offer
praise, and fathers teach their children of the faithfulness of God.
