Psalm 91

What can you say of the Lord, and not what you have heard others say or what you have joined others in saying. What is it that you can say of Him? It is not about what you have been taught, but what can you say of Him. The Psalmist says, I will say of the Lord ÒHe is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.Ó (Psalm 91:2) What the Psalmist is saying here is that He is his shelter and protection from danger and difficulty. Before the Psalmist could say it, He must have known something about Him. If you do not know Him you will have nothing to say to yourself about Him. It is not enough to know Him through what others know about the Lord. The Psalmist knows the Lord as the author and finisher of His life, the beginning and the end. The One and only that can fight his battles for him without him raising hand for a moment. Above all else, he knew Him as the one that is worthy to be trusted, the One to count on in every moment and every situation, the One to wait on for direction and deliverance also for provision and preservation. The Psalmist knew Him well enough to personalize Him by stating, ÒMy God in Him I will trust.Ó Personalizing Him is a demonstration of highest level of understanding Him and having knowledge about him. By virtue of knowledge and understanding of the Lord, the Psalmist declared a statement of certainty saying; ÒSurely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. 4 He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.Ó (Psalm 91:3-4) When covering is in place provision and every other area of need, such as protection from danger, will not be deficient on a regular basis. Having something to say about Him is an evidence of entering into a secret place of the Most High as a dwelling place. God is a faithful God and He will not let down those who seek to know Him and dwell in His secret place. Begin to seek Him so there will be a dwelling place for you when the snare of the fowler and the perilous pestilence comes knocking. The Snare of the fowler, the perilous pestilence and every other weapon will form against you but He will surely deliver you and they shall not prosper concerning you. What can you say of the Lord? God will have mercy in Jesus name.
