Sometimes, by the action of the time, the pages are yellowed and dusty.\u00a0Other hang on the door of their homes frames that adorn a copy of this\u00a0Psalm.<\/p>\n<p>Many use Psalm 91 to pray, while others cite excerpts from Psalm 91 in their\u00a0prayers, but do we understand your meaning? And there are still those who\u00a0don&#8217;t even read the Psalm, but by recommendation, make him an amulet.<\/p>\n<p>Long-standing Psalm 91 is used as an amulet. Even religions spiritualists believe that Psalm 91 is powerful and should be used in needs to ask and\u00a0thank the divine protection for everything and everyone.<\/p>\n<p>But, in spite of these mystical conceptions, the question arises: how to\u00a0understand and interpret Psalm 91?<\/p>\n<p>The psalmist and King David was Prophet and separated the Levites for their\u00a0prophecy with any sort of musical instruments and David, along with the army\u00a0captains, separated to the Ministry the sons of Asaph, and Heman, and\u00a0Jedutum, for their prophecy with harps, cymbals, and with &#8220;Dulcimer&#8221;; and\u00a0this was the number of men fit for the work of his Ministry: (1 Chronicles\u00a025: 1).<\/p>\n<p>The book of the Chronicles of Israel makes it clear that the primary\u00a0function of a psalmist was prophesying. King David commissioned the\u00a0musicians to agree upon what gave prophecies in the form of poetry, so that\u00a0one could sing them to the sound of musical instruments.<\/p>\n<p>This proposal aimed to supply the deficiency of David read of the\u00a0population, which mostly could not read and write. Just write the prophecies\u00a0in formal texts not facilitated the learning process of the people, while the poetry and the music fit very well in this respect.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, when analyzing a Psalm, it should be borne in mind that they are\u00a0prophetic-oriented compositions, and not just expressions of the soul, the\u00a0product of the human psyche. In an analysis of Psalms must prioritize the\u00a0message content to unveil their prophetic content. Poetic and musical issues are in the background.<\/p>\n<p>Once the Lord Jesus asked the Pharisees about Psalm 110, and they could not\u00a0answer him who the Messiah was son <strong>&#8220;saying, what think ye of Christ? Who is\u00a0a child? They said to him: David. He said to them: how is it then that\u00a0David, in spirit, calls him Lord, saying, the Lord said to my Lord: sit up\u00a0on my right, until I put your enemies a footstool for your feet? If David\u00a0thus calls him Lord, how is your son? And no one could answer him a Word;\u00a0not since that day dared someone else interrogate him &#8220;<\/strong>(Mt 22:42 -46).<\/p>\n<p>Through the approach that Jesus did, it turns out that the Psalms, as part\u00a0of the Scriptures, aims to give witness to Christ, and that the Psalm 110\u00a0demonstrates that the Messiah would not only the son of David, was Lord of\u00a0David, indicating his divinity.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that, in its vast majority, the Psalms make reference to\u00a0the Messiah, and however, each one sticks to a feature of the life of the\u00a0Messiah, such as: United, humanity, deity, mission, death, resurrection,\u00a0etc.<\/p>\n<p>Some Psalms to make reference to the relations established in eternity\u00a0between the people of God (Heb 1: 5; Sl 2: 7).<\/p>\n<p>The writer to the Hebrews demonstrates, through the Psalms, that the agreements signed in eternity have been implemented when the Firstborn of God was inducted into the world.<\/p>\n<p>Psalm 110, verse 1: <strong>&#8220;the Lord said to my Lord: sit at my right hand, you\u00a0even put your enemies by footstool of thy feet&#8221;<\/strong> (Psalm 110: 1), we have here\u00a0the &#8216; Lord &#8216; setting a deadline for the &#8216; Lord &#8216; of the psalmist remained\u00a0seated at his right hand. The psalmist was prophesying about yourself, or\u00a0Christ? (At 8:34). What to think about Christ in this text? (Mt 22:42).<\/p>\n<p>Before continuing, carefully read the Psalms 56 and 57, because they contain\u00a0essential elements to interpret Psalm 91. Note that the Psalm 56 and 57\u00a0describe prophetically a reality that was not the psalmist David or its\u00a0singers, and that the events described can refer to another person.<\/p>\n<p>Another point to note, is that the Psalms are prophetic compositions with\u00a0various puzzles, parables, figures, adages, proverbs, etc. Before\u00a0interpreting any phrase, unravel the puzzle of the parabola. For example:\u00a0why Jesus calls the scribes and Pharisees brood of vipers?<\/p>\n<p>First it is necessary to understand where Jesus took such a figure to make reference to the scribes and Pharisees, and that is such a figure.<\/p>\n<p>It is not possible to state categorically who the author of this Psalm. Some\u00a0point to the Prophet Moses as the writer of Psalm 91 because of certain\u00a0internal evidence (idioms). Others point the psalmist and King David, but\u00a0there is no such need.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>He who dwells<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>&#8220;He who dwells in the secret place of the most high will rest in the shadow<\/strong><strong>\u00a0of the Almighty&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He first step to interpret Psalm 91is answer the following question (Psalm 91: 1): Who dwells in the secret place of the most high? It is possible for men reside in the recesses of the Almighty? The answer is in the course of the Psalm:<strong> &#8220;Because thou, o Lord, are my refuge. In the most high did your\u00a0housing &#8220;<\/strong>(Psalm 91: 9).<\/p>\n<p>When he wrote this prophecy, the psalmist has referred to someone who at\u00a0that moment was residing in cache (hidden place) of the Almighty, and that,\u00a0in the future would be to leave the dwelling of the most high. When left the\u00a0hiding place of the most high, it would be necessary to take refuge in the\u00a0shadow of the Almighty (Oj 16:28).<\/p>\n<p>Analyzing the first question: <em>&#8220;who is the one who dwells in the secret place\u00a0of the most high?&#8221;; &#8220;Where is the hiding place of the most high?&#8221;<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8216; high &#8216; cache is not on Earth, because such a &#8216;cache says &#8216; place inaccessible to men That it has, it just, immortality and dwells in unapproachable light; whom no man has seen or can see, to be honor and might forever. Amen (1 Tim. 6:16); For the course, the path of life leads upward to that deviate from hell on bass (15:24 Pr); Thundered from heaven the Lord; and the Almighty made it sound your voice (22:14 2Sm); However, nobody ascended into heaven, but what came down from heaven, the son of man which is in heaven (Oj 3:13).<\/p>\n<p>Whereas the hideout of the Almighty is the sky, and ascended into heaven,\u00a0nobody except the one who descended from there (Oj 3:13), concludes that\u00a0Jesus is the one who lived in the secret place of the most high before being introduced to the world.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus lived in the sky when this Psalm was written and the psalmist predicts\u00a0that one who dwells in Heaven would rest on the protection of the Almighty,\u00a0that is, the Psalm says of Christ when they empty their glory and was\u00a0introduced as the only begotten son of God in the world.<\/p>\n<p>There is no record in the Scriptures of someone who has lived in the secret\u00a0place of the most high, but one that was to come, the son of man, him\u00a0Scripture testifies that in eternity inhabited the hinterland divinity (Sl\u00a045: 6; Is 7:14; Is 8:17; Proverbs 30: 3).<\/p>\n<p>Jesus himself spoke about his glory: and now glorify thou me, o father,\u00a0along with yourself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world existed (Jn 17: 5).<\/p>\n<p>The Holy Apostles of Christ also spoke of the glory of Christ (Jn 1: 1 and 1\u00a0John 1: 1-3; Hb 1: 5 and 8), so that Jesus is the one who lived in hiding\u00a0from God, because He is the eternal Word who was with God (Jn 1: 1).<\/p>\n<p>The shadow of the Almighty refers to protection which God has established on\u00a0the Messiah the Lord is who guard; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right (Sl\u00a0121: 5); Guard me as the girl&#8217;s eye; hide me under the shadow of your wings\u00a0(Psalm 17: 8); Because you were the poor, and the needy in his distress;\u00a0refuge from the storm, and shadow against the heat; because the breath of\u00a0the oppressors is like a storm against the wall (4: 25).<\/p>\n<p>Analyzing the second issue of the first verse: How Jesus rested in the shade\u00a0of the Omnipotent? Obeying God&#8217;s Word is rest in the shade of the\u00a0omnipotent. Trust in God&#8217;s Word is rest, which shows itself in obedience.\u00a0When Jesus resigned himself to do the will of God delivering his soul in death, was rested, as entrusted in the salvation of the omnipotent.<\/p>\n<p>Is in function of the truth that Jesus says: my food is to do the will of him who sent me, and perform their work (Oj 4:34).<\/p>\n<p>Satisfaction, the desire, the joy of Christ was to obey the word of God, so\u00a0that Isaiah prophesied saying that the word of God was in the mouth of\u00a0Christ. But, the mouth speaks of abundance than there is in the heart, so\u00a0that the word of God is the essence of Christ Because thou hast been my\u00a0help; then, in the shadow of your wings I regozijarei (Psalm 63: 7); And put\u00a0my words in thy mouth, and cover with the shadow of my hand; to plant the\u00a0heavens, and to found the land, and to say to Zion: thou art my people (Is\u00a051: 16); And made my mouth like a sharp sword, with the shadow of your hand\u00a0me covered; and set me like an arrow cleanly, and I hid in his quiver (2:\u00a049).<\/p>\n<p>There is a puzzle to be solved in the prophecy of Isaias when He says\u00a0that the Messiah would be like an arrow clean hidden in the quiver of the\u00a0Almighty. The arrow refers to the divine sonship of Messiah, as arrow in the\u00a0quiver of the offspring of a man says <strong>&#8220;like arrows in the hand of a powerful\u00a0man, so are the children of the youth&#8221;<\/strong> (Psalm 127: 4).<\/p>\n<p>The Messiah, in turn,\u00a0became protection for those who trust in him and will be that man as a\u00a0shelter against the wind, and a refuge from the storm, as streams of water\u00a0in dry places, and as the shadow of a great rock in land thirsty (2: 32)<\/p>\n<p>That is, the one that lived in eternity, for being the most high (15: 57),\u00a0to be introduced in world conditional servant of the Lord, lived the\u00a0predicted by the psalmist: relied entirely on the Father I well know that\u00a0you always hear me, but I said this because of the crowd that is around, to\u00a0believe that you have sent me (Jn 11:42); Trust in the Lord, that the\u00a0encyclopedia; free, because it has pleased (Sl 22: 8) compare with Trusted\u00a0in God; free-now, if loves you; because said: I am the son of God (Mt 27:\u00a043; Is 42: 1).<\/p>\n<p>Psalm 91 is prophetic and messianic, the psalmist registers some promises\u00a0for the word of God that would make man. The Almighty, Lord of all, leaves\u00a0his glory and takes the Child condition on its own (Sl 2: 47; Hb 3: 6). This\u00a0was the agreement closed in eternity, as it reads: <strong>&#8220;Because, to which of the\u00a0angels said ever: you are my son, Today I have begotten thee? And again: I\u00a0will be his father, and he shall be my son?<\/strong> (Heb 1: 5).<\/p>\n<p>In eternity God people agreed among themselves and one of them took the\u00a0Child condition when introduced in the world of men. That is why the\u00a0Scriptures refers to Christ as being the one who created all <strong>&#8220;But Christ as\u00a0a son, about his own House; which House are we, if so only keep firm\u00a0confidence and the glory of hope until the end &#8220;<\/strong>(Hb 3: 6; Jn 1: 3; Cl 1:16).<\/p>\n<p>In Psalm 110, another prophecy about Jesus the Christ is described as Lord\u00a0of the psalmist and is seen seated at the right hand of the Majesty on high.\u00a0In Psalm 110 have the risen Christ returning to his place by law, while in\u00a0Psalm 91 we have a prediction pointing out that Christ would leave his\u00a0glory.<\/p>\n<p>The Pharisees were reluctant to admit that the heavenly father had a son,\u00a0this why not observed the Scriptures: Who ascended to heaven and descended?\u00a0Who ended the wind in his fists? Who tied the waters in a garment? Who\u00a0established all the ends of the Earth? What is your name? And what is the\u00a0name of your son, if you know? (Proverbs 30: 4).<\/p>\n<p>Psalm 91 complements other Psalms. Psalm 15 says:<strong> &#8220;Lord, who shall dwell in\u00a0thy Tabernacle? Who shall dwell in thy Holy Hill? &#8220;<\/strong> (Psalm 15: 1). As\u00a0already discussed in other Psalms, only Jesus walked in sincerity, practiced\u00a0righteousness and spoke the truth according to your heart (Psalm 15: 3).<\/p>\n<p>Only the Christ of God has eyes able to despise the reprobate. Only He can\u00a0honor those who fear the Lord (Psalm 15: 4). salm 24 says<strong>: &#8220;who will rise to\u00a0the Hill of the Lord? Who will be in his tabernacle? &#8220;<\/strong> (Psalm 24: 3).<\/p>\n<p>The answer is clear and points to someone in specific: <strong>&#8220;one who is clean\u00a0hands and pure heart, which does not deliver his soul to vanity, nor swear\u00a0deceitfully. This will receive the blessing of the Lord and the Justice of\u00a0God of his salvation &#8220;<\/strong>(Psalm 24: 4 -5). Only Jesus among the children of men\u00a0was clean hands and pure heart, fulfilled all the law, received the blessing\u00a0and justice.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking specifically of the Messiah, the psalmist does not say &#8216; whatever\u00a0&#8216;, before using the demonstrative pronoun &#8216; one &#8216; in the Psalms 15, 24 and\u00a091, because only the Christ of God has never been shaken (Psalm 15: 5).<\/p>\n<p>The invitation of the Gospel is universal, since &#8216; everyone who believes &#8216;\u00a0or &#8216; any &#8216; will receive eternal life by believing in Jesus, however, the\u00a0Psalms are prophecies that present the Christ of God to men, as part of the\u00a0Scriptures, the Psalms announce the Christ (Oj 5:39), which makes it\u00a0possible to men the &#8216; knowledge &#8216; (the intima) of God, i.e. that men might\u00a0be partakers of the divine nature (2 Peter 1: 4).<\/p>\n<p>Any man who wants to dwell with the Almighty need to believe in Christ as\u00a0the Scriptures to receive from God the power to be the son of God (Jn 1:12).<\/p>\n<p>All those are created again, in righteousness and true holiness, are still\u00a0here in this world, as Christ is (1 Jn 4: 4:17; 1 Cor. 15:48). However, if\u00a0the believers are such that He is in this world, will dwell where he dwells,\u00a0seen that, where it is there also will be and when I go, and you prepare\u00a0place, will come again, and take you to myself, that where I is be ye also\u00a0(Oj 14: 3).<\/p>\n<p>Through Adam&#8217;s disobedience of the wicked generation settled and, through\u00a0Christ, who is the last Adam, the generation of the righteous is established\u00a0(Sl 24: 6). All those who are raised again in Christ Jesus are clean hands\u00a0and pure heart. Are able to reside in the holy place, since the brothers led\u00a0to glory are as the Firstborn, co-heirs of God (Rm 8:29; Hb 2:10).<\/p>\n<p>Psalm 91 is a prophecy that has two distinct &#8216; moments &#8216; relevant to the\u00a0word of God. The &#8216; time &#8216; that the psalmist prophesied, the word of God was\u00a0living in hiding of the Almighty, however, when the word became flesh took\u00a0shelter under the shadow of the Almighty to be stripped of his glory.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>My refuge, my stronghold<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>&#8220;I will say of the Lord: he is my God, my refuge, my stronghold, and in him will I trust.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One who resides in the secret place of the most high would announce the name\u00a0of God to men, saying: <strong>&#8220;he is my God, my refuge, my stronghold, and in him<\/strong><strong>\u00a0will I trust&#8221;<\/strong> (Psalm 91: 2).<\/p>\n<p>The writer to the Hebrews quotes Psalm 18 to demonstrate that the Child\u00a0itself through the psalmist said that would put his trust in God <strong>&#8220;and again:\u00a0I will put my trust in him&#8221;<\/strong> (Heb. 2:13; Sl 18: 1 -2; Sl 56: 4).<\/p>\n<p>In Psalms 103 and 104, the psalmist demonstrates your confidence in God and\u00a0bless you for your greatness and for everything he has done for the sake of\u00a0men, but the Psalm 91 uses the word &#8216; trust &#8216; in the future (it will trust),\u00a0which makes us question whether the psalmist still did not trust in God when\u00a0he wrote this Psalm. In the glory, the eternal Word did not trust but to be\u00a0introduced in the world end of flesh and blood and subject to the same\u00a0passions than men, however, without sin, would also need to fully trust in\u00a0God (Hb 4:15).<\/p>\n<p>The verse 2 of Psalm 91 is equivalent to the introduction of the Psalm the\u00a0psalmist leaves 31, when registered the last words of the Messiah: <strong>&#8220;In thee,\u00a0o Lord, I seek refuge; never I embarrassed; deliver me by thy righteousness\u00a0(&#8230;) Into your hands I commend my spirit. &#8220;<\/strong> (Sl 1: 31 -5).<\/p>\n<p>The word of God incarnate, the son of David would say of the Lord: <strong>&#8220;he is my\u00a0God, my refuge, my stronghold&#8221;<\/strong>. The psalmist foretold that the Messiah would\u00a0fully trust in God, even in the most grisly of existence it between men\u00a0would take refuge, shelter in God, ordering your spirit.<\/p>\n<p>If the psalmist were blessing the Lord, there would be no need to use the\u00a0verb &#8216; to say &#8216; in the future (say). Generally, the psalmists, when\u00a0reference to events relevant to them say: <strong>&#8220;bless Yahweh, o my soul, the<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Lord&#8221;<\/strong> (Psalm 103: 1).<\/p>\n<p>The Canticle of the psalmist David is: in the Lord I trust; as you say to my soul: Flee for your mountain as bird? (Sl 11: 1).<\/p>\n<p>Jesus Christ man to hear from boy to reading the Scriptures in the\u00a0synagogues and within his family, allied to the testimony of signs and\u00a0wonders that surrounded the event of his birth, understood by the Scriptures that he was the Messiah, the son of God incarnate. He needed to believe.<\/p>\n<p>In the face of the promises that the father left recorded in the Scriptures,\u00a0he believed, to become the Author and finisher of faith looking for Jesus,\u00a0the author and finisher of our faith, which, by the joy that it was\u00a0proposed, endured the cross, despising the affront, and settled at the right\u00a0hand of the throne of God (Heb 12: 2); Although he was a son, he learned\u00a0obedience through what he suffered (Heb 5: 8).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>The pestilence that walketh in darkness<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>&#8220;Because He will deliver you from the snare of the Fowler, and pernicious\u00a0fever.

The\u00a0enemy strikes in darkness, i.e., when you lack the light of understanding of\u00a0God&#8217;s Word. The arrows are deferred attacks against the Messiah while he was present among men (Oj 12:35 -36).<\/p>\n<p>But, for trusting in the father is that the confidence of the Messiah is\u00a0expressed in Psalm 64:-&#8220;Guard my soul of AWE the enemy!&#8221; (v. 1) what would\u00a0be the arms of the enemies of the Messiah? The answer is: the language! My\u00a0soul is between the Lions, and I am among those who are following, children\u00a0of men, whose teeth are Spears and arrows, and your tongue sharp sword (PS\u00a057: 4); Have sharpened the languages as the snake; the poison of ASPs is\u00a0under their lips (Psalm 140: 3).<\/p>\n<p>The enemies of David had sharp swords, but the son of David, the Messiah,\u00a0would face men that had the sharp languages as if they were swords.

While in Psalm 91 have a\u00a0prophecy that the Lord makes a promise of deliverance that would be granted\u00a0to the Messiah, the Messiah in Psalm 56 we have stating that had been\u00a0rescued from death.<\/p>\n<p>By &#8216; know &#8216; (intima) the father, Christ was put on a high retreat, i.e. at\u00a0the right hand of God in the highest (Sl 110: 1; OJ 10:30). The word &#8216; know\u00a0&#8216; has two meanings in the Bible.

And as God would answer it? Not letting the Christ at the mercy of\u00a0anguish? No! God has not promised to free it from anguish, before promised\u00a0to be with him during the period of distress. That God was present in\u00a0anguish, not necessarily the Christ should be and was distressed and took\u00a0with him Peter and James and John, and began to have dread, and anguish (Mc\u00a014:33).<\/p>\n<p>Christ was not abandoned on the cross, before the father heard and answered\u00a0(Sl 22:24). By the fact of having quoted Scripture when he was on the cross,\u00a0many regard them that Christ was abandoned, but this bad read occurs when\u00a0people fail to see that the Psalms are prophecies (Sl 1: 22; Mt 27: 46).<\/p>\n<p>As we read in the Gospels, Jesus cried out to the father in Gethsemane,\u00a0however, he was distressed to death, and death of the cross then came Jesus\u00a0with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples: take seat\u00a0you here, while I go and pray (Mt. 26: 36). The Messiah was glorified when\u00a0he delivered his spirit to the father, at which point the father withdrew\u00a0from the anguish <strong>&#8220;In thee, o Lord, I seek refuge; never I embarrassed;\u00a0deliver me by thy righteousness (&#8230;) Into your hands I commend my spirit. &#8220;<\/strong>\u00a0(Sl 1: 31 -5).<\/p>\n<p>The Christ of God was glorified with the glory that he had before being\u00a0introduced in the world, and joined the rest of the Father until his enemies\u00a0are made his footstool by feet and now glorify thou me, o father, along with\u00a0yourself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world existed (Jn\u00a017: 5).<\/p>\n<p>The promise of the father to the son is plenty of days, length, i.e. eternal\u00a0life you Life asked, and lha, even length of days forever and eternally (Sl\u00a021: 4).<\/p>\n<p>The son of man saw the salvation of God <strong>&#8220;you are the most beautiful of the\u00a0sons of men and the lips were anointed with grace, so God has blessed you\u00a0forever.
