Psalms 91:9
King James Version
8 Jun 2026
“Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;”
מַחֲסֶה
A place you run to when the storm hits. Not built by human hands. The psalmist had seen cities fall, mountains shake, waters roar — and still declared God as refuge. Not because the storm stopped, but because the shelter held.
