Free Presbyterian Church of Malvern

This sermon presents Psalm 46 as a profound declaration of God's unchanging presence, protection, and provision for His people, both in the Old Testament city of God and the New Testament heavenly Jerusalem. Centered on the themes of divine refuge, covenant faithfulness, and the sovereign power of God, the message emphasizes that believers are not only part of a spiritual city but are personally sustained by a God who is 'very present'—immediately accessible, unshaken by chaos, and actively helping in every time of trouble. The preacher underscores that true peace comes not from external circumstances but from knowing God, trusting His promises, and resting in His eternal purpose to be exalted through His people. This assurance leads to a life marked by stillness, joy, resolve, and unwavering confidence, culminating in the call to draw near to God's throne for grace and mercy in every need.
