Guided by the Spirit and Protected under His wings

THINGS WHICH THE EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND THE EAR HAS NOT HEARD,

AND WHICH HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN,

ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM [who hold Him in affectionate reverence, who obey Him, and who gratefully recognize the benefits that He has bestowed]. For God has unveiled them and revealed them to us through the [Holy] Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things [diligently], even [sounding and measuring] the [profound] depths of God [the divine counsels and things far beyond human understanding. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the [Holy] Spirit who is from God, so that we may know and understand the [wonderful] things freely given to us by God. We also speak of these things, not in words taught or supplied by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual thoughts with spiritual words [for those being guided by the Holy Spirit]. But we have the mind of Christ [to be guided by His thoughts and purposes]. (1Corinthians 2:9-10,12-13,16) Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. (Psalm 19:14) That I may proclaim with the voice of thanksgiving And declare all Your wonders. (Psalm 26:7) Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,

My lips shall praise You.

So will I bless You as long as I live;

I will lift up my hands in Your name.

My soul [my life, my very self] is satisfied as with marrow and fatness,

And my mouth offers praises [to You] with joyful lips. (Psalm 63:3-5) For You have been my help,

And in the shadow of Your wings [where I am always protected] I sing for joy.

My soul [my life, my very self] clings to You;

Your right hand upholds me. (Psalm 63:7-8) God takes care of us. We are safe in His powerful hands and surrounded by His unconditional love under the shadow of His wings. He is intensely protective of those who take refuge in the shadow of His wings.

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High Will remain secure and rest in the shadow of the Almighty [whose power no enemy can withstand]. (Psalm 91:1)
