Essential Trust
Psalms • Week 11
Psalm 91 focuses on the security we find in God's presence. It's easy to take comfort in that idea, but often we can forget our part in that relationship; actual trust. We have to actually trust in God in all things. Wopsle encourages us in Week 11 of our Psalms study to move from talking to trusting.

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
Matthew 4:7 NIV
Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

Psalm 91:14-16 NIV
“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
