Psalms 91:1
King James Version
6 Jun 2026
“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
סֵתֶר
The hidden place. Not a bunker you build — a place you abide. The Hebrew carries the sense of being covered, concealed, sheltered under something larger than yourself. To dwell in the secret place of the Most High is to live inside His protection, not just visit it.
