In the Shelter of His Wings
In the secret place of the Most High,
Where shadows of the Almighty lie,
I find my refuge, my fortress strong,
In His embrace, where I belong.
He delivers me from snares unseen,
From pestilence that stalks the green.
With feathers soft, He covers me,
Under His wings, I am set free.
His truth, my shield and buckler bright,
Dispels the fears of darkest night.
No terror by night, nor arrow by day,
Can steal my peace or lead me astray.
A thousand may fall at my side,
Ten thousand more, yet I abide.
For His promise keeps me safe and sound,
In His love, my fears are drowned.
No evil shall befall my way,
No plague come near, by night or day.
For angels guard me, lift me high,
Lest I stumble, lest I sigh.
Upon the lion and adder tread,
With strength and courage, I am led.
The dragon’s might, I shall defy,
For in His power, I rely.
Because I love Him, He rescues me,
Sets me on high, where I can see.
In trouble, He is ever near,
His voice, a whisper I hold dear.
He answers when I call His name,
In His presence, I am the same.
With long life, He satisfies,
Shows me salvation, where hope lies.
In the shelter of His wings, I rest,
In His love, I am truly blessed.
For He is my refuge, my fortress strong,
In His embrace, where I belong.
Psalm 91:4-He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
“Dear Lord, we ask that You continue to be our refuge and fortress, shielding us from all harm and guiding us through life’s challenges. May Your truth be our shield and buckler, and may we always find comfort under Your wings. Grant us the courage to face each day without fear, knowing that Your angels are watching over us. Help us to trust in Your promises and to call upon Your name in times of trouble. Satisfy us with long life and show us Your salvation, that we may glorify Your name forever. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.”
Poem based on Psalm 91
My Dear Friend:
I Loved this message, the Word of GOD always causes all Fears to flee from his people who follows HIS DIVINE WORD~♡~
This Helped me, when we are not in His Word Daily, we start to grow weaker . Like skipping a meal or two.
Thankyou My Long Dear Friend.

Ps: Camille how many years we’ve been friends now? Do you remember ?
Hello Dee!

Mighty words to describe our Almighty God. A beautiful acclamation of who He is.
This was indeed aspirational! Reading this I could feel the joy and peace that only He can give to the human heart! Well done my sister. You blessed us by these words expressing adoration to the only One who is worthy.
Thank you so much Cora!
And my friend -you’ve blessed me – I’m so appreciative when there is affirmation for our LORD through the comments, and loving hearts for God as expressed in the comments.
Your words mean a lot, as does your friendship.
Thank you, dear kind sister, in Christ!
God Bless~
Very beautifully worded poem, revealing the love of the Father. Also shows how He loves protecting us, when we choose to be obedient to Him!
I know this is a late (12:59am) comment, but I hope you have a blessed day and rest of your week! God bless you sister!
Linda,
Thank you so much for your kind words – especially from such a gifted poet!
I guess when it comes to the LORD – His love is the inspiration that allows our words to flow.
