THE SECURE CITY

Read: Psalms 91:1-15

MEMORISE:

 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalms 91:1)

EXPOSITION

In times of war and insecurity, there is always a place that is termed ‘saved’, a place of refuge. A fortified place. A place where people run to, for security and safety. In the ancient times, some places are so secure that enemies can’t penetrate. Whoever that can make it to such places is sure of life.

Today, there is no difference, only that the secure place is not a particular place but everywhere we can be in Christ, The emphasis is not in a place but in the PERSON of Jesus Christ. Our security is in the name of God. Call Him when you feel insecured, threatened, afraid and uncertain about life. He is very close to answer you. It is the strong tower that no armoury can pull down. Mount Zion is called the city of David, the city of great king (Ps. 48:2, 2 Sam. 5:7; 2 Chro. 5:2). It is a city located on the hill and considered unconquerable. The Israelites misbehaved and for a while, that place became a by word and a missing. Therefore, the focus is not on your position in JESUS CHRIST.

No matter how powerful the satanic arsenals might be, they can’t penetrate this secure city. Whatever the cooperation is against you, they can’t succeed.

It is comforting to know that God watches over us even in times of great stress and fear. Come to Him, you will be perfectly secured. He is the secure city you should desire. Call upon His name, He will answer you in the day of trouble and the name of God of Jacob will defend you. “Because you have made the LORD, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place. No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling” Ps. 91:9-10.
