DEVOTION ~ THE SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY
Theme: The Shadow of the Almighty
Text: Psalm 91:1&2
91 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”
To dwell in the secret place of the Most High God is to find yourself in His shelter. In the shelter of the Lord, you receive divine shade under His shadow. This protects you from the hazards of life and keeps you secure all the time. In confidence, you can agree with the psalmist that God is your refuge and fortress. A refuge is the state of being safe or sheltered from pursuit, danger, or difficulty. Whereas a fortress is a military stronghold, especially a strongly fortified town. In God's dwelling, these two apply concurrently and none shall fail irrespective of the adversary's strategy. Dear beloved in the Lord, with this mechanism at play when we dwell in the secret place of the Most High God, we ought to trust Him fervently. You dwell in the shadow of the Almighty God so trust Him to keep you safe and secure.
Let us Pray: Dear God, thank You, for the provision to dwell in Your secret place and to abide under Your shadow. You are my refuge and fortress and my trust is in You. Please secure me and my household in our health, marriages, finances, education, career, and all that You have blessed us with. This I ask in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!
