Weekly Inspiration- Psalm 91:4

Happy Wednesday! This weeks weekly inspiration comes from Psalm 91:4-

“He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.”

I have always loved birds! I remember in grade school every time the teacher would ask us “if you could be any animal, what would you be”, my answer was always the same- a beautiful bird. I wanted to be able to fly around, see all the beautiful things in the world, both near and far.I wanted to see the earth in it’s beauty from a different angle and respect it from a different perspective. For real ya’ll- I dreamed of flying in the air (haha!). Flash forward 20+ years and although I no longer want to be a bird, I still love them dearly. My love for birds brings this verse in Psalms to live for me- imagine God protecting you “under his wings”. I imagine a big bird- with all of his little baby birds just tucked under his wings, all warm and cozy, making sure they don’t drift too far away. This is how God protects us- he loves us so so much, always keeping watch over us. He makes sure we don’t get too far away from him, too out of reach. He is always right there.

[Tweet “The Lord is your rampart”]

To be honest, I had to look up the definition of “rampart ( don’t judge- lol). The word literally means ” a protective barrier”. This week- my challenge for you is to remember this word. Remember that that’s just what God is- your rampart. He is here for your protection. He will never leave you, never forsake you, and is always on your side.
