I have searched for this verse previously without much
success, today when I needed to see it I had no trouble finding it.
Psalm 46:7
The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our
fortress. Selah (KJV)
"The LORD of hosts" is also translated
"The LORD of Heaven's Armies"
Selah (Hebrew) is used to stress
the importance of a preceding passage- the Amplified Bible says it means
"pause, and think of that".
Clark's commentary on the Bible defines it as: Selah- This is a firm, lasting, unshaken, well-tried truth.
I can't think of anyone better to have on our side going
through this than the LORD of Heaven's Armies. Doubt is a tool of the enemy, but I take heart in knowing that the LORD of Heaven's Armies is with us, he is our fortress and refuge.
Psalm 47 goes on to say:
10 Be still and know that I am God: I will be
exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. (KJV)
