Psalm 91: You who live in the shelter of ‘Elyon,
who spend your nights in the shadow of Shaddai,
2 who say to Adonai, “My refuge! My fortress!
My God, in whom I trust!” —
3 he will rescue you from the trap of the hunter
and from the plague of calamities;
4 he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his truth is a shield and protection.
5 You will not fear the terrors of night
or the arrow that flies by day,
6 or the plague that roams in the dark,
or the scourge that wreaks havoc at noon.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand;
but it won’t come near you.
8 Only keep your eyes open,
and you will see how the wicked are punished.
9 For you have made Adonai, the Most High,
who is my refuge, your dwelling-place.
10 No disaster will happen to you,
no calamity will come near your tent;
11 for he will order his angels to care for you
and guard you wherever you go.
12 They will carry you in their hands,
so that you won’t trip on a stone.
13 You will tread down lions and snakes,
young lions and serpents you will trample underfoot.
14 “Because he loves me, I will rescue him;
because he knows my name, I will protect him.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him.
I will be with him when he is in trouble.
I will extricate him and bring him honor.
16 I will satisfy him with long life
and show him my salvation.”
"Shadow of His Wings by Author: M. K. Henderson“Someone must have sense enough and religion enough to cut off the chain of hate and evil, and this can only be done through love” (Martin Luther King, Jr.).
The psalmist, David, certain of God’s love for him, took refuge in the Lord’s angelic protection. How could he be so sure when King Saul’s army was stalking him daily? He lived a life of worship. As we commune with God, we also can be confident of His care.
A missionary in Asia was stalked by dangerous men. He trusted God to make a way out of a difficult situation and God did. It is the privilege of the believer to be sheltered by God, abiding in Him. We are secure in Him as He protects us from danger and disease, like a baby bird under the wings of its mother.
Regardless of the destruction of thousands near us, we are safe under God’s wings. The sprinkling of blood over the doorposts saved the firstborn of Israel. We are secure in Christ.
