Read the chapter

1He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. ✦ 2I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” ✦ 3Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence. ✦ 4He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler. ✦ 5You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day, ✦ 6Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. ✦ 7A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you. ✦ 8Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked. ✦ 9Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, ✦ 10No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; ✦ 11For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. ✦ 12In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone. ✦ 13You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot. ✦ 14“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name. ✦ 15He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. ✦ 16With long life I will satisfy him, And show him My salvation.” ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.

How Psalms 91 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
