 “Because you have made the LORD, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling, there shall be no evil befall you, neither shall any plague come near your tent.” Psalm 91:9-10 (MEV) Because of my early life experiences, I carried fear into my adult life. As a young Christian, I did not realize that the enemy would use these fears against me. Often when alone, I would hear someone walking in the other room and, at night, I would see ugly faces in the windows. However, it was the evil presence I could feel around me that scared me the most. A young summer missionary was living in our home at the time and noticed that I was struggling. He asked me if he could share my problem with the pastor and ask his advice. I said, “Sure.” A few nights later the pastor and my sister and her husband came over to pray with me. God delivered me from the influence of the enemy that night. The pastor encouraged me to fast, pray and commit scripture to memory. I chose Psalm 91. I was intrigued by the first verse: “I live within the shadow of the Almighty.” God was standing over me, and I stood safe in His presence. Every verse in this psalm made me feel more secure in God’s care. However, verses 9 and 10 held a special promise for me after I learned that “The devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8, NIV). This experience taught me that I need to know God’s Word and become familiar with His promises to be ready for my fight with “unseen forces in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12). Dear God, help me to remember that You are always with me and I do not have to face the enemy alone. Help me to remember that our enemy is an ever-present threat who comes to “steal and kill and destroy” (John 10:10). – Theresa Bose Council Fire is a collaboration with Intertribal Life Ministries and Native Evangelical Fellowship of Canada.
