Shalom,
Today we read Psalm 91 in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan and I want to post the entire Psalm here from the Amplified Bible!
1 He
who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed
under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand].
2 I
will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I
lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust!
3 For
[then] He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly
pestilence.
4 [Then]
He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings shall you trust and find
refuge; His truth and His faithfulness are a shield and a buckler.
5 You shall
not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and
slanders of the wicked) that flies by day,
6 Nor
of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden
death that surprise and lay waste at noonday.
7 A
thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it
shall not come near you.
8 Only
a spectator shall you be [yourself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most
High] as you witness the reward of the wicked.
9 Because
you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place,
10 There
shall no evil befall you, nor any plague or calamity come near your
tent.
11 For
He will give His angels [especial] charge over you to accompany and defend and preserve
you in all your ways [of obedience and service].
12 They
shall bear you up on their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13 You
shall tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the serpent shall you
trample underfoot.
14 Because
he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on
high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal
knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness—trusts and relies on Me, knowing I
will never forsake him, no, never].
15 He
shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I
will deliver him and honor him.
16 With
long life will I satisfy him and show him My salvation.
The Footnote for the Classic Amplified Bible says: The rich promises of this whole chapter are dependent upon one’s meeting exactly the conditions of these first two verses
That's why we have those two verses underlined! They ARE the prerequisite for obtaining, walking in and enjoying the PROMISES in this Psalm! Meditate on Psalm 91 and then declare, decree, proclaim and EXPECT them to operate in YOUR life! Here is Hillsong with "Made Me Glad":
Shalom in Him!
