The psalm of protection begins with a choice: dwelling in the shelter of the Most High and resting in His shadow.
To dwell means to remain, to abide, to make our home in God's presence. This is not a quick visit but a permanent residence in His shelter. Under the shadow of the Almighty, we find rest—the kind of rest that comes from complete security and perfect peace. This is where protection begins: choosing to remain in intimate proximity to God.
