Daily Bible Quote On Finding Rest

Daily Bible Quote On Finding Rest

Psalms 91:1-2
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of Yahweh, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.”


Psalm 91:1-2 expresses the idea that those who remain close to God will experience his protection and provision. The "secret place of the Most High" is a metaphorical phrase referring to a close relationship with God. This is not a physical location, but rather a state of mind and heart in which we acknowledge God's sovereignty and rely on his strength and guidance.

The image of "resting in the shadow of the Almighty" suggests a place of safety and shelter from the heat of the day. Just as a person seeks the shade of a tree to escape the scorching sun, those who remain close to God find comfort and protection in his presence.

The Psalmist declares that God is their refuge and fortress, a place of safety and security. They acknowledge their trust in God and rely on him for protection and provision.

These verses encourage us to draw close to God and to trust in his goodness and protection. By doing so, we can find rest and security in his presence, even in the midst of difficulty and danger.

This Psalm is a personal favorite of mine. I recite it every time I step out of the house and on my travels.
