This is an easy read with some really good and helpful thoughts. Enjoying it.

We are studying this book in a small Bible study. The 1st half of the book explains the psalm. The 2nd half is full of testimonies. Very inspiring! Very challenging! Life changing if applied!

This book was a great book it helps you understand the 91 Psalm

The stories are great and the study of the Bible verse really explains and puts things in perspective. Knowing this verse is God’s promise for believers will give you peace of mind always. Praise the Lord.

This book gave me a better understanding of each verse when praying Psalm 91. Each chapter covers one verse at a time, explaining God's protection, along with real life testimonies. We are currently reading this book in our women's small group and it's made a huge difference in the ladies. We recently had several severe storms in our area and it was great to hear the many ladies that picked up their bibles and read Psalm 91 to cover their homes.

Includes a wonderful comprehensive Prayer

A book of 245 pages dedicated to just one psalm - but what a psalm it is! Psalm 91 is the only psalm that offers protection from all possible calamities and disasters that can befall mankind.This excellent and inspiring study book by Peggy Joyce Ruth unlocks Psalm 91 verse by verse and explains with absolute clarity the meaning behind the words. Psalm 91 is a covenant invitation by God offered to all believers to enter into. It offers protection from the storms of life. Like virtually all of God's promises to believers, this psalm has conditional promises. Faith in the Word of God in the promises of this psalm is what activates the covenant of protection. Walking in obedience to His Word is what keeps the covenant valid. Speaking the words of the psalm out loud every day is what the author recommends.The book is divided into two parts, the explanation of the psalm verses, and then multiple first-person accounts on how reciting and trusting Psalm 91 changed lives and showed how God Almighty delivers according to his promises in this psalm. For example, one story shows how a man used Psalm 91 to ward off a tornado that was headed directly for his home. He and his family recited Pslam 91 against the storm as it was approaching, and the tornado lifted and passed over his home. Some will call this sheer coincidence while others will proclaim God's protection, it all depends on the lens one is looking through (faith or doubt).This is a book of hope for those who believe in the Lord. Either the words of the Bible are true and can be relied upon, or the entire Bible is just a collection of hopeful stories and thoughts. If it is the former, there is great power in the Word and the Word becomes a foundation for life; if it is the latter, then these are just words, nothing more. The believer has a choice to make: To believe in the words as the very truth of God or to regard the words as nice words, if they could only be true. The first approach is that of faith, while the second approach is that of doubt. Just as the disciples were asked to proclaim who Jesus of Nazareth is (Mark 8:27), similarly, the reader is challenged as to whether he believes the Word or whether he does not.I read this book the first time and then went through it again (and again) and highlighted the parts that resonated to me. Truly, Psalm 91 is a unique Psalm and this is also a unique book. I highly recommend it to those who are seeking shelter from the storms of life.kone

If you are having problems with fear or anxiety this book is for you!

Great book

Beautiful and moving

I found this book intriguing, and with so many true stories of deliverance, difficult to become sceptical. I decided to start memorizing the Psalm, and told my friends about it. My friend sent it to her sister, who is five months pregant. Last week, there was a series of break ins in her sister's town, and the men drove over to her house; they were not able to get in, and my friend felt it was due to the powerful prayer of the psalm. The book does not claim that Psalm 91 is a magic chant but it gives background information on its various components and imagery, and how it connects with the psalmist's belief in God. At the back of the book there's a page with gaps where you can insert your name and make it more personal. It sure felt good to embark on my recent trip with the words of the psalm in my mind.Of course you can just read the psalm , but the book, with its background and many stories of people's deliverance from danger reinforces the basic principles of the psalm.

Amazing. Something everyone should read.

This book is one of the best I have ever read. It is packed full of teaching on Psalm 91 plus story upon story of those who have experienced divine favor and protection from the words of this Psalm, many from various military conflicts. The story themselves are awesome. I was amazed at how little I actually knew about this Psalm, until I read this. Ruth Peggy Joyce has spent a good part of her life studying this Psalm which tells me I have just begun to know the Presence of the One in these words.
