“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty”
Psalm 91:1
I must have read this verse a hundred times… God has this fun way of getting our attention… I have always been captivated about “abiding under the shadow of the Almighty”. As a kid I for some reason always pictured myself just safe under shadow of His wings.
The other day though this is what grabbed my heart , “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High”. Some translations have it as “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High”. He who dwells ! He who dwells…
The word dwell means “to remain” or “to live as a resident”…. Just picture that with me… He who resides, he who lives as a resident in the presence of God ! Wow ! The problem with most of us is we think His presence is a guest house: - ) It’s a Sunday morning visit or a daily morning visit as part of our Christian routine…
God has called us for more that that… we are to dwell in the secret place , dwell in the shelter of the Most High… to reside constantly, to just live in His presence… and when we do, we shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty… We know He is over us…
It’s a 24*7 state of being. Its not something we do… its just who we are … we are those who just dwell in the secret place of the Most High.
I pray God will stir up our hearts to make that our greatest desire.. to just dwell in the secret place of the Most High… Doesn’t matter what’s happening around us… doesn’t matter what the circumstance… we are His children abiding under the shadow of the Almighty
God bless
