How To Put God First: Be Still And Know That I Am God — Day 1

Welcome to Day 1 of the Anchored Daily Morning Journal series, where we reset our morning rhythm with Scripture, prayer, and practical reflection. Today we’re rooted in Psalm 46, especially the command, “Be still and know that I am God.”Psalm 46 doesn’t start with a calm world, it starts with shaking ground, roaring waters, and kingdoms falling. That’s the point. Stillness isn’t something you wait for when life gets quiet, it’s something you choose inside the noise. Stillness is not passivity, it’s surrender. It’s the decision to stop competing with God for control and to begin your day from presence instead of panic.In this session, Nate Mlambo walks through the reading, shares an opening teaching on stillness as a spiritual posture, then guides you through Day 1 of the journal with prompts, prayer, gratitude, and a practical action step. If mornings have been rushed, distracted, or dominated by your phone, this is your reset. We’re not trying to fix your whole life in one day, we’re learning how to reorder the first minutes so God sets the tone, not urgency.
