Psalms 91:5

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 91:5. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

For if this alludes to temporal dangers,

"Not a single shaft shall hit,

Till the God of love sees fit."

And if there be a covert allusion here to spiritual dangers-to the darts of the wicked one and to the alarms which fill the soul when the presence of God is withdrawn-if thou dwellest near to God thou shalt know no fear of these things, for neither death nor hell can injure the man that lives in God.
