TOPIC: “God’s Safe Place!” (DCLM Daily Manna 27 July 2024)

KEY VERSE: “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1).

TEXT: Psalm 91:1-16 (KJV)

1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5 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.

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:

Scientists at the US Department of Health and Human Services have said that in the event of a nuclear blast, survival in an underground bomb shelter is guaranteed for only a few months. They claim that such isolation ensures protection from “the…intense…and the higher levels of radioactive fallout you are at risk of exposure to.” You must also enjoy “proper supplies and air filtration” to see you through the quarantine.

Contrast man’s atomic bunker of severely limited capacity to protect from death with that of the “secret place of the most High”. God says if you dwell in His shelter, you will be abiding “under the shadow of the Almighty,” beyond the reach of any danger, whether posed by thousands of the troops of the enemy or by perpetrators of evil forces under the cover of the night. The psalmist arrays quite formidable physical and spiritual foes that would trouble man. But he says they cannot come near those taking refuge in God.

This is good news for humanity, which has been locked in the throes of fear and helplessness for ages. Initiative after initiative by governments and their think tanks have not offered succour. This is because they have not looked toward the secret and sacred place where God promises unlimited deliverance and safety. This assurance is most comforting against the backdrop of growing dangers and conflicts in our world today.

The call on all who “labour and are heavy laden” to come for rest in God is still open. The rest He gives is through salvation brought by His Son Jesus Christ. As we receive Him as Lord by faith, He builds a fortress in which He hides us here on earth, ahead of His return, to take us to the final resting place He has prepared for us in heaven.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
No harm can befall you in God’s secret place!
