Psalm 91

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."
3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place- the Most High, who is my refuge-
10 no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder; the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.
14 "Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name.


If you are one that holds fast to the Lord, that loves Him with all your heart, soul, mind and strength...He promises to deliver and protect you. This is really good news. We desperately need His deliverance and protection. We are living in a war zone, spiritually. The enemy of our souls is constantly on the prowl seeking to devour whomever He can, but especially those believers that are weak, vulnerable, and alienated from the body of Christ. We must hold fast with everything we have to see the glory of God in our midst. We must decrease and He must increase. There is no other way.

Do not fear no matter what may come in order to tempt you to retreat in fear. Perfect Love casts out fear. God will be our protector and our deliverer. It does not mean that we won't go through trial and tribulation, persecution or distress. It means that in our darkest hour He will deliver us. Praise God!
