Insecure - The Lord is My Fortress - Psalm 91*

Live under the protection of God Most High
 and stay in the shadow of God All-Powerful.
Then you will say to the Lord,
“You are my fortress, my place of safety;
you are my God, and I trust you.” 
The Lord will keep you safe from
secret traps  and deadly diseases. 
He will spread his wings over you and keep you
secure. His faithfulness is like a shield or a city wall. 
You won’t need to worry about dangers at night 
or arrows during the day. 
And you won’t fear diseases that strike in the dark 
or sudden disaster at noon.  You will not be harmed,
 though thousands fall all around you. 
And with your own eyes you will see  the punishment of the wicked. 
The Lord Most High is your fortress. 
Run to him for safety, 
And no terrible disasters will strike you or your home.
God will command his angels to protect you 
wherever you go.  They will carry you in their arms, 
and you won’t hurt your feet on the stones.
 You will overpower the strongest lions  and the most deadly snakes.
The Lord says,
 “If you love me and truly know who I am, 
I will rescue you and keep you safe. 
When you are in trouble, call out to me.
 I will answer and be there to protect and honour you. 
You will live a long life  and see my saving power.”
