Resurrected Life- Secret Place (HP12)

When you do charitable deeds, pray or fast 'to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly', then you have come into the secret place of God.
 
So enjoy the blessings, protections, deliverance, healings, long life, joy, peace, honours, gifts, born again, etc. in Psalm 91 when you are found worthy to dwell in His secret place.

Psalm 91  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.” Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look, and see the reward of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place, no evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; for He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot. “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has 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 honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation.”

Brethren, what else do we desire from the Lord since 'He is our everything' (when we dwell in His secret place).

John 16:23-24  “And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
 
Similarly, when the disciples were with our Lord up to His crucifixion, they were always filled with joy and had no need of anything for 'He was their everything'.
