Psalm 91 Bible verse wall art, alcohol ink painting

Psalm 91. When I was a kid, my mom had my siblings and I memorize this whole chapter. At the time, it seemed eternally long and irrelevant, but through my adult life it’s surfaced again and again, various truths shining wisdom and hope in the middle of various hard seasons. Now, it’s the chapter that has settled my heart through the last six weeks, cutting through all the pandemic noise to lay peace and calm everything else: “He will command His angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways” (Psalm 91:11).

Scripture memory is an investment into our spiritual bank accounts. We don’t always see immediate benefit; sometimes we put in the hard work, adding to it through the years and watching it grow. But when a crisis hits, or when we feel empty inside, we don’t need to look for quick-fix solutions. We don’t have to go into spiritual debt by asking someone else— social media, or the news, or the approval of others—to cover the void. Instead, we can look with confidence and security to the truths that have been growing inside. The word of Christ dwells in us richly.
