- It breaks the cedars in pieces (v. 5)
- It strikes with flashes of lightning (v. 7)

He ended the Psalm by acknowledging God’s sovereignty. “The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; the Lord is enthroned as King forever. The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace (vs. 11-12)
Are you going through a storm? Can you see God’s power and glorify Him in the midst of the storm? If your life is stormy now, worship Him and wait on Him. The storm will pass and He will bless you with peace.,[:]
