One who dwells in the shelter of the Most HighWill lodge 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 it is He who rescues you from the net of the trapperAnd from the deadly plague.4 He will cover you with His pinions,And under His wings you may take refuge;His faithfulness is a shield and wall.5 You will not be afraid of the terror by night,Or of the arrow that flies by day;6 Of the plague that [a]stalks in darkness,Or of the destruction that devastates at noon.---Psalm 91:1-6 NASBGod is a shelter, a refuge when we are afraid. Here in Psalm 91, the writer’s faith in God as protector would carry him through all the dangers and fears of life. This should be a picture of our trust---trading all our fears for faith in him, no matter how intense our fears. To do this we must “live” and “rest” with him (91:1). By entrusting ourselves to his protection and pledging our daily devotion to him, we will be kept safe.--- Life Application Study Bible notes
