Verse 2 says that the Lord is our refuge and fortress and we can trust Him. The verse goes on to say that God will deliver us and cover us with His feathers. This says to me that God , like the eagle protects her young, will protect us. How safe the babies feel under the mother eagles’s wings. That is just how safe we can feel with God.
We will have nothing to fear because we have made the Lord our refuge. No evil will befall us and no plague will come near our dwelling. He will give His angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways. According to verses 14-16, if we set our love upon God, He will deliver us and set us on high. We will call upon Him and He will answer. He will be with us in trouble, honour us and give us a long life.
Wow!!! What a wonderful, wonderful God we serve. What wonderful promises He makes to those that love Him. It is so wonderful to know that God is with us in everything we do and in everything we face. We can praise Him today because of His great love and His desire to care for each of us who trusts Him.
