He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings, you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

- Psalm 91:4

Have you ever considered what it will be like to stand in God’s presence or under the cover of His feathers?

Have you stopped today to thank Him for being with you right now?

The Bible tells us that Jesus is always with us and knows our every need.

The image of Jesus covering us with feathers is a stunning picture of our Savior.

Christ loves us so much that he is our refuge in times of trouble.

His faithfulness is our shield from worry and pain.

When we trade our fears for trust in Him, His peace will fill us in indescribable ways.

Today I encourage you to read through Psalm 91. It is filled with God’s promises! Over and over, God tells us that He will carry us through all fears and all dangers. He will send His angels to keep watch over us. Because we love Jesus, He will rescue us.

Isn’t it comforting to know that even in times of great stress, Jesus is with you? You can trust Him to meet your needs each day.

With Love,
Sherry Shepherd

This promise of refuge continues throughout Psalm 91, especially in Psalm 91:11 and Psalm 91:15-16, where we see how God guards and delivers those who trust Him.
