 Psalm 91:1    He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.​    

 1Pe 4:6 For unto this end was the gospel preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind, and be sober unto prayer:above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves; for love covereth a multitude of sins:

  

Dwelleth Heb   Yashab   = to dwell,  remain, sit, abid​e .          Abiding in Christ        Jhn 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me.    In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.     Mansions Greek mone =      the inmates of a house, the family .    Jhn 14:23  Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.   Jhn 14:17 even the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him not, neither knoweth him: ye know him; for he abideth with you, and shall be in you.  Gods people the church we are the mansions in John 14:1  Luk 17:20 And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God cometh, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:   neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is within you.   Jhn 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he shall guide you into all the truth: for he shall not speak from himself; but what things soever he shall hear, these shall he speak: and he shall declare unto you the things that are to come.

Secret place​=covering, shelter, hiding place, secrecy​ .   Jhn 14:16  And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever,even the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him not, neither knoweth him: ye know him; for he abideth with you, and shall be in you.I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you.


 Most high = The name of God    Greek: onoma  Name:        for all that a "name" implies, of authority, character, rank, majesty, power, excellence, etc., of everything that the "name" covers:   of the "Name" of God as expressing His attributes.  Mat 16:19 I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.  2Co 10:4 (for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the casting down of strongholds);  casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;  The knowledge of God and the obedience of Christ is the absolute word of God himself . Jesus cast out devils and raised the dead and heal the sick with just a word . He has given his word with power to bind and to loose , the promises of God are with that power to proclaim and command Luk 10:19 Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.  john 14:17      Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

   Mar 16:17   And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues;      Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.     In this verse we have the words Gospel =     Kingdom of God and of salvation through Christ, to be received by faith Greek = euangelion

Whole Greek: pas  All , whole God is still createing and still working on his body of believers Children being born today created by God will have the right ot experience the mystery of Christ in you the hope of glory .  Souls being born until the very end of all things .  Read the whole word of God for yourself aks him to give you the understanding of his mystery   1Co 2:7 but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, even the wisdom that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory:   

 Creation    greek ktizo                 Eph 3: 9   And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,   :  Col 1:27 to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:   

Shall abide =  To cause to rest or lodge  .  Even in the darkest of times God rest is always upon his children .   Psa 91 is a psalm of hope in the most trying times of a persons life . A super natural rest beyond mans wisdom , Gods rest to his children .  Jhn 14:23  Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him . The word of God in our hearts is the rest that God provides for those who believe him . 2Ti 2:11 Faithful is the saying: For if we died with him, we shall also live with him:if we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us: if we are faithless, he abideth faithful; for he cannot deny himself.   Jhn 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever,     Jhn 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever,  Jesus said he will never leave you he will be with you for ever. I am reminded of a book that was written of a womans experiences in a prison camp in World War II  and how she survived the harsh treatment and living conditions she suffered . The book is titled The Hidding Place .  Her testiomony of the sufferings she went through are beyond human comprehension .    I believe she was speaking of Psalm 91 and the power of Gods word to keep her and deliever her ,   She was protected by the word of Gods power power  there were times I believe they just could not see her and she was under the shadow of the most high resting with Gods rest.  

The shadow= symbolic of a transitoriness of life .    Phl 3:8 Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ,  and be found in him, not having a righteousness of mine own, even that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith:  that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death;  if by any means I may attain unto the resurrection from the dead.     

Of the Almighty God = El Shaddai the almighty  (of God )  

 Mat 12:17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,  Behold, my servant whom I have chosen; 

 My beloved in whom my soul is well pleased: 

 I will put my Spirit upon him,

And he shall declare judgment to the Gentiles.

He shall not strive, nor cry aloud;

Neither shall any one hear his voice in the streets.

 A bruised reed shall he not break,

And smoking flax shall he not quench,

Till he send forth judgment unto victory.

 And in his name shall the Gentiles hope.

Jhn 11:24   Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.  Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on me, though he die, yet shall he live;  and whosoever liveth and believeth on me shall never die. Believest thou this?

     The Blood and Water


Silver in the bible is a type of redemption  Lev 17:11    "the life of the flesh is in the blood," 

Water  Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it; that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,that he might present the church to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

The Old Testament prophesied that Christ would be sold for thirty pieces of silver: Zec. 11:12, 13 "And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver. And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD." This prophesy was fulfilled as stated in the following passages:1. Mat. 26:15 "And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver."

2. Mat. 27:3 "Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,"

3. Mat 27:9 "Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;"Christ was about 33 ½ years of age when he was crucified. The value of a male servant was set at 50 shekels of silver in the book of Leviticus. Then why was he sold for 30 shekels of silver? According to the prophecy in Zechariah the Lord said that the price was a goodly price. Why was it a goodly price? The answer is that the Lord came to redeem his bride. The value of his bride in bondage as a servant would have been 30 shekels of silver and not 50 shekels of silver. Jesus did not come to redeem himself as he had no need for redemption. He came to redeem his elect people, his bride. She was the one who was sold into the bondage of sin and required redemption. Jesus gave his life for the redemption of his bride, the elect family of God.

 Jhn 19:34 howbeit one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and straightway there came out blood and water.  There  (came out ) blood and water .  Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.  Jhn 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.    Luk 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.  Gods kingdom here is spiritual and he God himself comes and makes his home in you . And when God comes and abides in you he has complete ruel over our spirit ,soul and body. We we say we are born again we must be born of the blood and the wter that came from the side of Christ Jesus .Jhn 1:11 He came unto his own, and they that were his own received him not.But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, even to them that believe on his name:who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. The kingdom Jesus is speaking of is here right now on this earth .  And living in the hearts of men to be born again is to have a change of heart have a broken and contrite heart , 2Co 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, a repentance which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

Mat 16:28 Verily I say unto you, There are some of them that stand here, who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.Mar 9:1 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There are some here of them that stand by, who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God come with power.Act 2:38 And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him. The men and women following Jesus in that day saw his kingdom come in the power of his holy spirit . Luk 24:49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.Jhn 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you., Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.Jhn 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.  Born of water is according to Rom 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. Act 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. We must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins  

 John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, even to them that believe on his name:, even to them that believe on his name:Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.  The word of God as we have today has nothing to do with mans religion mans religion seperates the honest heart from God. Mar 7:13 making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.  Mat 15:6 he shall not honor his father. And ye have made void the word of God because of your tradition.  Mat 15:8

This people honoreth me with their lips;  But their heart is far from me.But in vain do they worship me,Teaching as their doctrines the precepts of men.  Mar 8:15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod. 

Jhn 6:33 For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life unto the world. Jhn 6:51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: yea and the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world.
