Psalm
91 – Dwelling in Him
God
preserves those who abide in Him and love Him. These promises are not for
people who run to the Lord only in times of danger but for those who dwell in
His presence and make the Holy of Holies their dwelling place.
Snares
and pestilences, arrows, plagues stones, and lions and snakes are the dangers
we face. We can also give the modern equivalents for these ancient perils that
Jewish travelers faced.
The
abiding life produces the assuring life, the life without fear; which leads to
the abounding life. The life of victory and peace. The safest place in the
world is under the shadow of the Almighty.
Psalm
92 Thank the Lord
It
is good to thank the Lord for every day He gives us. As the day begins, we can
look ahead by faith and praise Him for His loving kindness. As the day ends, we
can look back and praise Him for His faithfulness.
It
is good to thank the Lord that we are part of what is eternal. We cannot
understand eternity, but we can have eternal life through faith in Christ; and we
can live for what is eternal. (I John 2:17) (I Corinthians 15:58).
It
is even good to thank the Lord for old age. In old age, those who live for
Christ become fresh, flourishing, fruitful, and faithful. Instead of
complaining, they are praising the Lord and witnessing Him.
