Psalms 34:7
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
The angel of the Lord doesn't just pass by believers—he encamps around them, providing permanent protective presence.
To encamp means to set up a military position for protection and defense. The angel of the Lord—often understood as a pre-incarnate appearance of Christ—establishes a protective perimeter around those who fear God. This is not temporary coverage but an ongoing, active defense. We live within a divine security detail we cannot see but can absolutely trust.
