Dwell There – God Calling 09/18 | Women of Christianity

“Many do not recognize the fact as they ought, that Satan has got men fast asleep in sin and that it is his great device to keep them so. He does not care what we do if he can do that. We may sing songs about the sweet by and by, preach sermons and say prayers until doomsday, and he will never concern himself about us, if we don’t wake anybody up. But if we awake the sleeping sinner he will gnash on us with his teeth. This is our work – to wake people up.” – Catherine Booth

Dwell There – God Calling 09/18

Published September 18, 2012 |

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. – Psalm 91:1

Hidden in a sure place, known only to God and you. So secret that no power on earth can even find it.

But, My beloved children, you must dwell therein. No fitful visit, a real abiding. Make it your home. Your dwelling place.

Over that home shall My Shadow rest, to make it doubly safe, doubly secret. Like brooding mother-bird wings that Shadow rests. How safe, how sure, you must feel there.

When fears assail you, and cares trouble you, then it is because you have ventured out of that protecting Shadow. Then the one, the only thing to do is to creep back into shelter again. So rest.

Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings. Psalm 17:8
