He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord,”He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him will I trust. Psalm 91:1,2

When danger or any kind of emergency hits, we are told to dial 9-1-1. This is the help the world has to offer. But the word of God shares another 9-1-1. What do we do when fear and danger grips our hearts? We are to declare Psalm 91!

Psalm 91 tells us that God our Father is our help and protection. He is a shelter from the storm. It might be the darkest hour of your life, but you need not fear.

So many times in life I have tried to rely on my own strength and abilities. Yes, I fail and fear is still very present. But as I abide in the secret place of the Most High, fear leaves and I once again realize how very loving and mighty He is! My heart at times only sees danger, but with God I am filled with strength and courage once again.

I can rest in His shelter knowing He is my refuge. God Almighty has freed me from the pestilence of night and the destruction at noonday! Take Psalm 91 to heart.

Read, declare and memorize – for the next time a trial strikes know that He will always be with you and protect us in the trials life may bring upon us!
