Psalm 91 is a short poem promising protection and extending comfort. It was written millennia ago, and it makes great boasts. For generations, it has comforted a nation: in letters passed down to children, as a mantra for soldiers going off to war, and as a lullaby sung on many dark nights. There’s no magic power in the words, but there’s might behind them. This Psalm was breathed out by the Spirit of God, pledging promises of protection to his children. They’re powerful words because their keeper is the Almighty. Psalm 91 includes strong words from a strong God.
