God's People in the Time of Trouble

"Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain." Isaiah 26:20, 21.

"For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock." Psalm 27:5.

"He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure." Isaiah 33:16.

Psalm 91

   "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
   I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
   Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
   He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
   Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
   Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
   A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
   Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
   Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
   There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
   For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
   They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
   Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
   Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
   He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
   With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation."
