Our Dwelling Place

It is better to take refuge in the LORD

Than to trust in man.

It is better to take refuge in the LORD

Than to trust in princes. (Psalm 118:8-8)

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].

I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress,

My God, in whom I trust [with great confidence, and on whom I rely]. ( Psalm 91:1-2) I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that have nothing more that they can do. But I will point out to you whom you should fear: fear the One who, after He has killed, has authority and power to hurl [you] into hell; yes, I say to you, [stand in great awe of God and] fear Him! (Luke 12:4-5)

I say to you, whoever declares openly and confesses Me before men [speaking freely of Me as his Lord], the Son of Man also will declare openly and confess him [as one of His own] before the angels of God. But he who denies Me before men will be denied in the presence of the angels of God. (Luke 12:8-9)

Because you have made the LORD, [who is] my refuge,

Even the Most High, your dwelling place, He will command His angels in regard to you,

To protect and defend and guard you in all your ways [of obedience and service]. (Psalm 91:9,11)
