Fear Of Climate Change?

Do you live in fear of the consequences of climate change? Do you believe in God? Do you believe in the Bible?  If so, please read Psalm 46. It is only 11 verses long. It’ll take 30 seconds. If that is too much then just read the first 3 verses. Don’t be ruled by fear, but rather by God. He is our comfort, joy and refuge. There are additional truths from the Bible about the world, seasons, natural disasters and climate listed afterwards. I hope you read them.

Psalm 46
1) God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

2) Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

3) Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

4) There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.

5) God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

6) The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.

7) The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

8) Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth.

9) He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.

10) Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

11) The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

The Psalmist continues to assure us of God’s magnificence and power over the elements with Psalm 93.
1) The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

2) Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.

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, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.

5) Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O Lord, for ever.

In Psalm 74 we see that God has control of the day, the night, and the seasons.
16) The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.

17) Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.

And finally, in the first book of Moses we discover that we actually have nothing to worry about. All we have to do is trust, believe and rely on God.

Genesis 8:22
While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
