Come in, It’s Open We Have Access Into
The Secret Place
I
If you’ve ever played hide and seek as a child, you know that finding the perfect hiding spot is priceless. You can always hide there and never be found. In the same way, it is important for God’s children to understand that we have a hiding place in our Lord and Bridegroom that is impenetrable by the enemy. As I reflected on Psalm 91, it occurred to me that there are specific conditions under which we can claim the protection afforded there. Let’s define our terms To dwell means to remain for a time or to keep the attention directed at. A Secret place is one that is kept hidden from others. It is a location that is just for you and the Most High. Verse one states, we are to dwell or remain in the secret place of the Most High. This means that there is an action that needs to be taken by us in order to get to this specific place. Only those who make the choice to dwell or stay in this place get the privilege of ‘abiding under the shadow of the Almighty.’ We don’t come for a summer vacation, Christmas and Easter break, we stay/linger in this secret place everyday.
