Psalms 91 — He That Dwelleth In the Secret Place of the Most High
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust. A thousand shall fall at thy side. There shall no evil befall thee. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him.
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.”
— Psalm 91:1-2
- v.1-8 The secret place
- v.9-13 No evil shall befall

Christ refused to misuse v.11 in His temptation (Matthew 4:6). The believer trusts the verse rightly — without testing.
Dwelleth... abide. Two verbs of permanence. Not visiting — dwelling.
