Dwelling in God’s Shelter
Synopsis Psalm 90:1-91:9 1/19/2022
Moses wrote the psalm which describes God’s relationship to Israel. God, he declared, that God was before all things. God’s existence transcends time. And he contrasted this with man’s frailty and temporality.
God shortened man’s life because of sin. And so, human lives pass quickly. Therefore, Moses taught that men should order their days rightly. In this way, the favor of God might dwell with men.
Likewise, the following psalm reflects on the protection and goodness that God gives to faithful men and women.
Dwelling in God’s Shelter
God has invited each and every human being to securely dwell in His shelter. He wants to protect and defend each of us.
And if I take Him up on His offer, then I can expect to fear nothing. No evil shall ever befall me.
So, what holds me back?
“But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.” 2 Thess 3:3
