I live in the shelter of the Most High.
I am under His shadow.
​
This I declare about the Lord:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety.
He is my God, and I trust Him.
​
For He will rescue me from every trap
and protect me from deadly disease.
His faithful promises are my armor and protection.
​
I will not be afraid of the terrors of the night,
nor the arrow that flies in the day.
​
I will not dread the disease that stalks
in darkness,
nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
​
Though a thousand fall at my side,
though ten thousand are dying around me,
these evils will not touch me.
​
When I open my eyes,
I see how the wicked are punished.
Because I make the Lord my refuge,
Because I make the Most High my shelter,
No evil will conquer me;
no plague will come near my home.
​
For He will order His angels
to protect me wherever I go.
They will hold me up with their hands
so I won’t even hurt my foot on a stone.
​
I’ll trample upon lions and cobras;
I’ll crush fierce lions and serpents
under my feet!
​
The Lord says,
“I will rescue those who love Me.
I will protect those who trust in My name.
When they call on Me, I will answer;
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue and honor them.
I will reward them with long life
and give them My salvation.”

3. Why should I fear when the Bible says God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7)?
​
4. Why should I lack faith to live for Christ when God has given me a measure of faith (Romans 12:3)?
