Under His Wings

UNDER HIS WINGS.

As I stood being prayed for I was aware of someone behind me, yet how could it be someone when they towered over me about eight foot high? Then each side of me I saw something pure white stretching out beside me about 4 foot on each side. I thought at first it was a cloak of pure white huge feathers. Then they wrapped around me and I was totally enfolded by this cloak. But then I realised this was not a cloak, this was feathers, wrapped around me, and within them I was totally safe. They were completely soft and I felt like a baby being swaddled. I knew I was safe within those wings. I was reminded that the Holy Spirit is often depicted as a dove and I realised that this beautiful being was the Holy Spirit. I was under the wings of the Lord, I was “IN HIM” the Holy Spirit was engulfing me in Him. Then the Lord spoke to me “Psalm 91”.

PSALM 91

You who sit down in the High God’s presence, spending time in Shaddai’s shadow, Say this: “God, you are my refuge. I trust in You and I am safe”. That is right He rescues you from hidden traps, shields you from deadly hazards. His huge outstretched arms protect you - under them you are perfectly safe; His arms fend off all harm.

You will stand untouched, watch it all from a distance, watch the wicked turn into corpses. Yes, because God is your refuge, the High God your very own home, Evil cannot get close to you, harm cannot get through the door.

He ordered His angels to guard you wherever you go. If you stumble, they will catch you, their job is to keep you from falling. You will walk unharmed among lions and snakes, and bring down your foot upon young lions and serpents upon the path.

“If you hold on to me for dear life“, says God, “I will get you out of any trouble. I will give you the best of care if you will only get to know and trust Me. Call me and I will answer, be at your side in bad times, I will rescue you, then show you what it means to come under my authority. I will give you a long life.
