Psalm 91:1-6
Memory Verse:
“He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler” (Psalm 91:4).
It is a known fact that the days are evil and that we are in perilous times. Evil is everywhere and calamities seem to besiege man on a daily basis. We hear tales of woes through the news, friends, neighbours, colleagues and particularly through social media. Sometimes, these woes directly affect us or people we know. Life is no longer certain. Terrorist activities, kidnapping, ritual killings, natural disasters, and accidents abound. There seems to be no hiding place and the hearts of many are failing. The good news is that in the midst of all these calamities, there is a divine protection that is very sure for the people of God. Psalm 91 tells us where and how this protection can be found. It is found by dwelling in the secret place of the Most High. “He who dwells in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1). This God can be your refuge and fortress. He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence, when you make Him your secret place. When you seek Him, you will find Him and as you trust in Him, He shall cover you with His feathers and under His wings you shall take refuge.
Are you threatened by the evil all around? Get into the secret place of the Most High and find rest, safety and divine protection for your soul.
Prayer Points:
1. Father, I receive grace to dwell in Your secret place.
2. I shall enjoy God’s divine protection.
