The Secret Place

"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty."

Psalm 91:1

     Over the summer I heard the most wonderful passage in the Bible! While I was at GSA, we learned a song called Secret Place based on Psalm 91. I have never heard this passage before. It is so uplifting and powerful. 

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him

 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

     With what we are dealing with right now, we need God more than ever. God offers us protection. He will deliver us! If God can deliver David from Goliath, Jonah from the belly of a whale, Shadrack and Meshack and Abednego from the fiery furnace, and Daniel from the lion's den, he can deliver us.

     In the song we sang, the lyrics say,

"Take me to a secret place, underneath God's wing. Take me to a secret place where God protects me." 

     It is such a powerful chapter. I say this in almost every blog, but I will say it again.

WHAT A GREAT GOD WE SERVE!!

     I am so thankful we serve a God who is always with us. He offers the protection we need. We have no need to fear ever! God's got this! We need to have faith over fear!! We should honor the one who loves and set us free. He has given us free salvation! I can not wait to see him face to face!
