Psalms 91:2. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Observe the sweetness of making a personal application of any passage in the Word. " I will say." A general doctrine gives us little consolation till we can make a particular application of it. Oh, for faith-daring, personal faith-to say, "I will say of the Lord he is my refuge and my fortress " That was saying a great deal, but it was saying a great deal more when the psalmist added, "My God." He could not say more than that. God is a refuge and a fortress to me, but he is infinitely more than that. We cannot tell what he is. Rather, we cannot tell what he is not; but we sum it all up when we say, "My God." And surely it is but natural to add, " In him will I trust." Why, who could help it? If this God is our God, and such a God; such a refuge and such a fortress to his people, surely we must trust him. Come, if you are troubled tonight. If you have got any doubts and fears, may the Spirit of God enable you to make this the blessed resolution of your Spirit. "My God, in him will I trust."
