Psalm 91 & 92 -- LOVE Psalm 91!

Psalm 91 is the only chapter in the Bible besides Psalm 23 that I ever memorized (I sure wish there were more!) and I so love it!  Every verse says so much to me about God’s protection for those He loves!  It’s worth stopping to read regularly!

My commentary had these things to say: 

“It is better to suffer in the will of God than to invite trouble by disobeying God… The hidden life of worship and communion with God makes possible the public life of obedience and service … Those who abide in the Lord are safe when they are doing His will.  God’s servants are immortal until their work is done … Among His blessings will be deliverance and protection, answered prayer, companionship in times of trouble, honor, satisfaction, and a long life … It’s one thing for doctors to add years to our life, but God adds life to our years and makes that life worthwhile … Because our God reigns supremely, and always will, we can be the people of God that He wants us to be.”

Father, thank You for Your watchcare and protection.  You taught me what verse 2 says long ago – “You are my God and I trust You.”  Thanks for being my shield and my protection.  Help me to live a life of worship and communion with You that will enable me to be obedient and serve You.

Your Brother In Christ,

Gary Ford
