Psalm 31:20 highlights the covering of God extended to the believer through a relationship with Him. This verse opens with, “You Hide them in the shelter of your presence.” The phrase “shelter of your presence” means the “secret presence.” This references the tabernacle (Ps. 27:5). There, man’s pride cannot exist.

The Hebrew word for “pride” is rokes, meaning “conspiracy,” “snares,” or “plots.” This means that when the enemy conspires or plots against the righteous, God hides them from public view of their enemies and brings them into the Holy presence where He dwells, which guarantees His protection from plots, schemes, and slander. This is the illustration of God covering the believer’s life with His countenance and face. This indicates a communion with God in which the believer is transformed into the likeness of God, where their life is so hidden in God that when their enemies try to come against them, they are met with the face of God, and the enemy cannot find them.

Reflection:

The face and protection of God is a fortress, and when you enter that fortress, you are safe. If you are struggling with feeling secure in God’s presence, this indicates that you need to commune in the secret place with Him. When you are hidden in God, the enemy cannot access you.

Personal Reflection:

Are you hidden in God? Have you cultivated the habit of daily communion with Him? Today, focus on communing with God by adding additional time during your prayer time to hear from Him.

Prayer:

Dear Lord, I want to be so hidden in you that when my enemies come upon me, all they see is you. Show me how to heed your guidance and cultivate daily communion with you so that I may be transformed daily. Show me the areas of pride that keep me from being entirely hidden in you despite distractions and changing circumstances. You are my fortress, and there is safety in your presence. So hide me. In Jesus’ Name, I pray, Amen!
