Psalm 91 1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust.

When we dwell under God’s protective hand, we are safe from the ravages of sin and from hell.

We let go of our own lusts and our own ways and live life God’s Way;

that protects us.

Psalm 91:3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. 4 He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His Truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

As we live according to the Bible, we are protected.

Furthermore, God takes away our fears when we

live life His Way.

11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.

(NIV) 11 The wealth of the rich is their fortified city; they imagine it an unscalable wall.

How deceitful the defense of the rich man, who has his portion and treasure in this world! It is a strong city and a high wall only in his own conceit; for it will fail when most in need. They will be exposed to the just wrath of that Judge whom they despised as a Savior.

Matthew Henry Concise Bible Commentary.

18:12 and before honor is humility.

Proverbs 13:10 (TLB) Pride leads to arguments; be humble, take advice, and become wise.

James 4 6 But He giveth more grace. Wherefore He saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

God honors humility.

13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

Pride causes us to butt in with an answer before we even know the whole problem.

We need to hear both sides of a conflict.

We need to practice the art of listening.
