Only God is Our Refuge...

Psalm 91

CP note: As the veil is being pulled back to reveal the control mechanisms of this world, and what they truly are, can be quite frightening and can leave us with a feeling of despair. That is a normal reaction because we have been asleep—under this system’s spell—and is it a wonder, growing up in it and being influenced by it, that most of us have put our faith and trust in the institutions of the world's system and now we are discovering that things aren't what they appear to be.

Believe it or not, this revealing is a good thing—to find out that the things of this fallen world and the powers behind it that have ruled our lives are now being exposed by God. It is because of His mercy and His justice that this system will be brought into the Light and judged and His kingdom will come and His will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

God, in his loving kindness has given us the greatest gift of redemption and restoration through His Son Jesus (Yahushua in the Hebrew), and when we accept that gift, we have nothing or no-thing to worry about and what may come our way in these times. In my opinion, we can have everything on our preparedness list checked off and still not be covered, I believe Psalm 91 says it all...

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.
A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.
You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.
10 no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
14 He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.
15 With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
16 Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.
17 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling,
18 “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
