Good morning to you on this fine Thursday, my friend!Read Psalm 91. Selah.
This particular Psalm is widely read, and rightfully so, because it paints such a wonderful picture of how our Good God is faithful in providing safety and protection for those who abide in Him. As you read the Psalm today, take note of the bond between His protection and His truth.
Verse 4 is particularly illustrative: “He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge;”. Like a hen with a brood of chicks, the LORD provides a safe place for His children when the enemy is seeking to attack. And not only is the refuge place provided by our LORD safe, it is familiar to us – it is where we belong. His cover and His protection and His truth all are literally our dwelling place, according to the psalmist.
In this world where fear and anxiety are constantly being stoked, we have a refuge – in Him. Let us abide today and always “under the shadow of the Almighty”. Amen!
