Our sinful world is full of danger.
Diseases, injuries, and disasters are risks of everyday life.
We never know when we might contract a serious illness, be involved in an accident, or find ourselves in the midst of a disaster.
Over and above these perils, the greatest threat in our world is the evil perpetrated by wicked people who pose a very real threat to all who truly follow Christ.
Scripture warns us that as we grow nearer to the return of Christ, the wickedness of people will increase and we will find ourselves living in perilous times
The dangers of life and its ongoing threats can leave us feeling insecure.
In spite of our best efforts to protect ourselves, we know that we cannot totally shield ourselves from harm.
For generations, God’s people have turned to Psalm 91 for comfort and courage.
Written by an unknown author, it reminds us that God is our security.
But reading between the lines of God’s Promises, we see four challenges for us...
I. Be Near 1-2
These promises are exclusively for those who draw near to God.
A. My Secret Place
1
Before I start each day,
there is a special place
I love to go alone
and seek my Savior's face:
I find wisdom in His Word
to instruct me in His will,
And I hear His gentle voice
say, "My child, be still."
Chorus
My quiet time alone
gives me power to obey.
My quiet time alone
with God each day.
I talk to Him in prayer;
ev'ry day He meets me there.
My quiet time alone with God.
He's with me all the time,
wherever I may go;
Each moment of the day,
He's always there I know.
But I need that special time
when I bow before His throne,
Just to read His Word
and talk with my Lord alone
Chorus
My quiet time alone
gives me power to obey.
My quiet time alone
with God each day.
I talk to Him in prayer;
ev'ry day He meets me there.
My quiet time alone with God.
B. Refuge and Fortress
2
means Shelter from rain or storm

C. My Trustworthy God
2b
Trust is an amazing feeling!
When you find someone you can completely trust, It’s incredible.
You can always trust God to do the right thing.
God is to us what He has always been to His people.
He is the same God now that He has always been.
He is our …

⮚ all-sufficient One
⮚ faithful One
⮚ God
⮚ refuge and fortress
All that God is—His character and divine attributes—is even more available to us today, in the church age, than it was to God’s people when this psalm was written.
Why?
Because He dwells in us.
His power does not merely work for us but also works in and through us by His indwelling Spirit (Ep.
3:20; Ro. 8:11).
In light of that, we need to draw near to God and to live in the fullness of His presence in every aspect of our lives.
Simply stated, we need to abide in Christ (Jn.
15:1–17).
We have open access into God’s presence—a great privilege secured for us by the blood of Christ.
But before we can abide in His presence, we have to be clean.
We need to allow God’s Word to purify our hearts and our lives, so we can live in His holy presence at all times
II.
Be Full of Trust 3-8
Being near, isn’t good enough, we need to trust Him!
Because He is trustworthy, Trust Him!
A. He will save us from the Enemy
3
B.
He will Protect You with His Wing
4
I have always loved the image of God covering us with His wing, like a mother bird.
C.
He will Reassure you
1. Through terror of the unknown
5a
2. Through the attacks of the Enemy
5b
3. Through times of disease
6a
4. Through destruction
6b
D. He Will Help You Escape
7-8
1.
Though others may fall
7
2. We will see the enemy get whats coming to them
8
During dangerous times we need to trust God even more.
If we abide in Him, and live yielded to the Holy Spirit, we can face any situation in life without fear.
The enemy will attack anything to do with God: His Word & His people.
Many Christians around the world are facing persecution for their stand with Christ
But God is with them, and the devil will not win.
Every step of the way God gives His grace as we go through the trials.
