Overview
Psalm 91 is a message to those who have or who will face challenges, problems, and difficult circumstances.  In other words, it is a Psalm for everyone, but there are specific qualifications in order to claim its promises.  The promises of Psalm 91 are for those who abide in the secret place. When you experience a crisis outside of this spiritual dwelling, you cannot claim the provisions, protection, and promises of this passage.  That is why it is important to learn how to gain access to the secret place and remain there permanently.  ( A Certificate of Completion is NOT offered for this course).
