1. He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.Psalm 91:1. Psalm 91 guarantees the assurance of God's protection. Those who seek Christ have found the secret place of the Almighty: His heart. To abide under His shadow, you must be very close to Him. In the desert of sin, there is no shade and no protection from the heat. The shadow of the Almighty is Christ our Rock. He is the Tree of eternal life, the Shadow of protection, the very Person of God in the form of man. No one can gain access to this closeness, this protection, this Heart of the Living God, except the redeemed of the Lord, Christ the Son. Christ has defeated Satan. Christ is the new believer's confession, the declaration of belief when opposed, the deepest comfort in trials, and the celebration of every victorious believer. Christ is our sure protection against the cunning and manipulating lies of Satan. Satan works with traps of wealth and pleasure, founded on lies of success. Set your love on Christ.Loving God brings His presence, His protection, His prosperity, and promotion. The greatest blessing of all is His preservation in the salvation of Christ the Lord. Amen.
