” He will shield you with his wings. He will shelter you with his feathers . His faithful promises are your armor and protection” Psalm 91:4 (Living Bible).
This is a great word picture of how God cares for his children, those who have put their faith and trust in Jesus.
As a bird shields and protects its young with its wings and feathers, so also God provides comfort and protection for those committed to Him.
what are the faithful promises that are our armor and protection? There are many of them in the Bible. For example:
” He is able to save completely those who come to God through Him…..(Hebrews 7:25).
” Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you” (John 14-27).
” Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old is gone the new has come ” (2nd Corinthian 5: 17).
” If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).
” Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight” (Proverbs 3: 5-6).
” Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” (Matthew 7-7).
These are just a few of the precious promises that God has given to all who call on Him.
He has promised: to save us– to give us peace– to give us a new life– to forgive us — to give us direction– to hear and answer prayer.
If you do not have all of this, you may have it this very moment, when by faith you ask Jesus to come into your life.
