Psalm 91:1: "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty."
What does it mean to "dwell" in the shelter of the Most High?
At the very least it means settling in the vicinity of God Himself. This only occurs through faith, that we would stay as close to God as possible. It is a matter of obedience but even more so it is about loving God, truly loving God. And to abide in the shadow of the Almighty is to take refuge in the Lord. While asserting doctrinal statements are not without value, it is an entirely other thing to live it out. We would do well to live this out, dwelling in His shelter and abiding in His shadow!
