God As The Dwelling Place Answering Mortality

  • Psalms 90–92 together teach that the Lord Most High is the dwelling place of His people, answering the suffocating reality of human mortality.
  • Don Green shows the triad’s verbal links (dwelling, Most High, refuge) and argues they form a unified philosophy of life.

Mortality Described As Brief And Crushing

  • Mortality is a real problem Scripture presses: human life is a fleeting vapor, like grass that sprouts in morning and withers by evening.
  • Don Green traces this from Psalm 90 (days like 70–80 years) to Psalm 92’s image of wickedness flourishing briefly.
ADVICE

Pray To Have Your Days Numbered Wisely
