Living under God’s shadow is the most protected place in the universe. It takes faith though to stay there, and faith comes only from His word. In the Gospels, the Greek word for ‘salvation’ carries the meaning of ‘physical rescue from harm or danger’ for more than 30% of its usage (17 times). Here in Psalm 91, God’s salvation is likened to bodily protection. Actively live in Him and He will actively live over you. Build this belief into your heart and enjoy this protection in your life. Believe for your whole household.
You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who spend your nights in the shadow of the Almighty, who say to the LORD, “My refuge! My fortress! My God, in whom I trust!” – He will rescue you from the trap of the hunter, and from the plague of disease. He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you will find refuge; His truth is a shield and a protection.
You will not fear the terrors of night, or the arrow that flies by day, or the sickness that roams in the dark, or even the destruction that lays waste at noon. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it won’t come near you. Only keep your eyes open, and you will see how the wicked are punished. For you have made the LORD, the Most High, who is my refuge, your dwelling place. No disaster will happen to you, no calamity will come near your house; for He will order His angels to care for you and guard you wherever you go. They will carry you in their hands, so that you won’t trip on a stone. You will tread down lions and snakes, young lions and serpents you will trample underfoot.
“Because he loves Me, I will rescue him; because he knows My Name, I will protect him. He will call upon Me, and I will answer him. I will be with him when he is in trouble. I will rescue him and bring him honor. I will satisfy him with long life and show him My salvation.” Psalm 91:1-16
I will show him My salvation

I am also Jean Kaku Kesse with similar situation but thank God i have been able to come back to Him. There more i help friends and other people the more they hurt me. And that has made me fall shot, instead of praising and worshiping the Lord and give Him thanks , thank you Lord for everything.
Thanks you
God, in the mighty name of Jesus, I know You use every situation for Your good, no matter how seemingly painful, unjust and unfair it may appear on the outside. All I need do is ask, seek and knock in faith and all will be given. My Heavenly Father, God, in the almighty name of Jesus, I ask, seek and knock that all my troubled brothers and sisters on this site may find Your peace – I send each and everyone of them, love, blessings and good – will Father, in Jesus’s name, Amen.
I JUST THANK GOD FOR HIM ALLOWING ME TO SEE ANOTHER DAY, I LOOK AT OTHER PEOPLE AND MY PROBLEMS DONT SEEM SO BAD, I KNOW THAT GOD SITS HIGH AND HE LOOKS LOW AND THAT HE HAS HIS EYES ON ME BECAUSE THE WORD SAID THAT I AM THE APPLE OF HIS EYE , TO KNOW A BIG GOD LIKE THAT IS CONCERNED ABOUT EVERY PART OF MY LIFE WHAT MORE CAN I ASK FOR!

Dear Wanda,
Your prayer touched me today as I googled prayers for protection. I too am in a similar situation. I love my husband but something evil has taken over his life since he lost his job last January. It seems every time God blesses me he is there to take it away and uses it for his own desires. I believe in the power of prayer and power of the blood of Jesus. He will deliver you out of your situation. It may not be the way we expect it but keep praying and he will deliver. I will keep you in my prayers. Please keep me in yours.

I have done many bad things, even as a child, I try to tell myself I didn’t know better because I was hurt when I was a child,and acted out I remember though and it weighs heavy on me,as an adult I haven’t made the best choices, but I try to be kind, loving understanding helpful to all,but I find I get hurt a lot in doing so..Is it wrong for me to believe that I deserve it? I ask God for help, and he has, but its almost seems like I’m self sabotaging myself because I haven’t forgotten my past and most times I feel as if I deserve to be treated badly to make up for my sins…is this normal?
Jean – If you have given your heart to God and asked for His forgiveness and cleansing, then you are forgiven and cleansed. The next person you need to have a serious talk with is yourself. Everyone has old bad stuff, some of us of course more than others, but none of it matters.
The Devil’s attack is two-fold. First, he tempts you, sometimes through the actions or hurts of others. If you give in to the temptation, and you sin, then he comes back and taunts you forever with the condemnation of your sin. He is not called the Accuser of the Brethren for nothing. Get more of God inside of you than what the world has done to you. Read articles on this site that jump out at you. Confess (speak) scriptures that speak to forgiveness and what God had done for you on the Cross.
Here is the rule – hurt people hurt other people. The task is to let God heal the hurt and learn to love yourself, and then learn to love others. Let go of the hurt, forgive them and yourself, and move on to victory in God. God will take care of them and you. He is after all God. Rex
Thankyou Rex
I do realize I am a little too hard on myself, I have been doing some research on spiritual warfare, and how the devil likes to hurt the ones who seek or have found God,I am going to start going to bible study and church on Sunday, for you are right I need to surround myself in the lord and God,I do talk to them everyday,and I guess I just been feeling like I have taking abuse and treated badly from family and friends as a form of punishment a way of paying for my sins,I am truly being tested but I do tell Jesus every day my heart and soul belongs to him but just so you know, my grandfather was a reverend in the Anglican church, God is no stranger to me, and he has done miracles for me,…like me finding this place online and actually got a wonderful reply. ..thankyou Rex, I will let you know how the bible studies go and as well forgiving myself. .bless you. Jean
Rex, your message to Jean helps me a lot. Many times i was in the same situation. Sometimes i feel like God might not listen to me anymore because i sin too much. Honestly speaking, this site really helps me. Thank God for leading me to this site.
