Psalm 91

Scripture 

Psalm 91:1-2

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

Observation-What does it say?

The writer of this Psalm (who was believed to be Moses), talks about taking refuge in God. 

Understanding-What does it mean?

Moses went through the wilderness for 40 years. During that time, his source of protection and strength was God.

Life Application 

What wilderness have you found yourself walking through? Find Rest and Comfort in the shelter and shadow of God’s wings.

Dear Lord, I pray that even through times of uncertainty, we would trust You and not lean on our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6). May we find true rest, comfort and protection from You alone. Amen. 

Listen to this song that is based on this Psalm. When I read this Psalm, I immediately thought of this song, “On Eagle’s Wings” covered by Shane and Shane.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9JfJw6Wf-4
