Reading Psalms 91. In this Psalm, we see a picture of God as our shelter, our refuge, the safe place that we can trust in. There's also just this beautiful image of the feathers. Normally, feathers could be comforting, but they're not necessarily going to protect you from an attack like an arrow coming in. So, I kind of imagine the outside of the feathers being like armor. Jewish tradition attributes it to Moses as opposed to David believing that David added it to this book of Psalms later, because of the experience Moses had when the Lord passed by him on the mountain. Verse 11 for He will order his angels to protect you wherever you go, is the verse Satan quotes to Jesus when he's tempting him in the wilderness. Jesus responds, it is said, don't put the Lord your God to the test, which is from Deuteronomy 6:16. This psalm right here is about making shelter in God. I'm trusting in God remaining in him and as we go through it, which we will, trials and tribulations will come. But what does this word say? Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor the arrows that fly by day. Arrows are flying by day. Disease is stalking at night. And God says that when they call on me, I will answer, I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation. So, it's knowing that truth of God, that His promises are true and that He is with us.
