Psalm 91:4 "He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler."
Quite honestly, this morning I seem to be at a loss of words. But I'm looking at these words of the Psalmist and asking the Lord to please apply them to me. I need the covering of the feathers of His wings. I need to abide under His shadow. I need His fellowship just now. I want to trust Him. I need Him to be my shield and to fight my battle because I can't do it without Him.
"Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that
flieth by day; (6) Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness;
nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. (7) A thousand
shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not
come nigh thee." (Psalm 91:5-7) I read those verses and from my
heart I say, "I need this."
No matter how much time you think you have to prepare, I find that it isn't
enough. You think you have it all planned out as to what will happen next, but
then you realize: "I may have planned, but I can't do it without my
Lord." So, I say... "Lord, please cover me with your feathers.
I want to be under your wings, under your grace, experiencing your power as my
shield. Help me, O Lord."
Now, the truth of the matter is found in the first two words of verse four,
"HE SHALL..." So now I say, "Thank you Lord."
