Re: Verse reading–Psalm 91 (day four)
There is great confidence and courage for the one who trusts in the Lord. The promises are many for what God will do for the faithful. Reading Psalm 91, the prominent word is “will”. God will, He will, I will, you will…all referring to what God ‘will’ do. God’s promises are true and He is always faithful to fulfill His Word. The one who trusts in God will receive these promises. Jesus knew that. He knew that whatever God said, God did. When Satan met Jesus in the desert to tempt Him for a season, he (Satan) quoted a portion of Psalm 91. Satan attempted to entice Jesus to prove that God meant what He said. “Throw yourself down and God will give His angels charge over you,”…but Jesus answered the temptation with more scripture (a good practice to follow!). Matthew and Luke both record His response in chapter 4 of each. Satan sought to separate a portion of scripture…God’s Word is unified. Jesus was obedient to all of scripture…so should we be!
