THERE IS COMPLETE PROTECTION FOR YOU

SERIES: DIVINE PROTECTION FOR YOU

TEXT: PSALM 91:7-10

These four verses give us a revelation of our complete protection. When you are full of courage and void of any kind of fear. When you put your trust in God, then all your enemies will scatter before you. Nothing will move you any longer. Such is the assurance in the verses above. The fear of the Lord is the key to successful living. When you fear the Lord, the kingdom of heaven will be opened for you and divine protection and provision in life. The Name of the Lord is a strong tower the righteous run to it and are safe” (Prov 18:10). Let us notice
