Dwelling

He who dwells 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 I will trust.” Psalm 91:1-2

Dwells – yashab – to dwell, remain, tarry.
Where are you dwelling? 
Where are you remaining? 
Where are you tarrying? 
The Word tells us that is we dwell in the secret place of the Most High, we shall abide = luwn-=lodge, pass the night, abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I find it interesting that this word abide has the connotation of lodging overnight. 
When the day is as night and the night is long, we can stay in the Presence of the Father.
When we remain in the secret place, our night abiding is under His shadow. 
I see a picture of us kneeling in His Presence, He leaning over us in a protective way, so close that His very shadow covers us as we pray. 
The key is in where we dwell. 
Are we dwelling in His Presence, close enough that His shadow can cover us?
 If not, today is the day to make a change. 
His Presence is available to us; we need to choose to tarry there.
