Security & Safety In God's Hand
Psalm 91
The Psalms (sacred songs) were mostly written by King David who was a talented harpist and composer, but Ps. 91 is a powerful Psalm written by Moses (along with Ps. 90) and compiled by David in his book of Psalms. Unfortunately, the musical score was not preserved along with the words.
The word for God translated as “Almighty” in this Psalm is actually Shaddai, which means ‘human breasts’, one of the many names of God. Sometimes it is translated ‘sufficient’. Shad means ‘mammary.’ The idea is that we are like babies suckling at God’s breast, totally enveloped in God’s enormous love, taken care of by an all powerful protector who nurtures and protects us.

A Christian friend of mine was watching CNN’s live coverage of the 2004 tsunami — amazingly, they filmed a group of people running away from a huge wave when one of the people turned around and commanded the wave to stop in Jesus’ name and the water parted around him on live TV.
Everyday miracles are possible once we’re living in the holy spirit.
Psalm 91
1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
3 Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
5 You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.”
