I am the Lord your God. You must never fear the gods of the Amorites in whose land you will live. But you have not obeyed me. How important to you is your job? Your home or car? What about family and friendships? How about your computer or phone?
This is what the Lord God of Israel says: I brought you out of Egypt. I took you away from slavery. I rescued you from the power of the Egyptians and from the power of those who oppressed you. I forced people out of your way. I gave you their land.

No sickness will come near your house. Not only will you be secure, but all your family too. All those who live in your house. Isn't that good to know? As we make the Lord our personal refuge, our families are supernaturally protected from disaster.
If you make the Most High your dwelling... A reference to the beginning of the psalm. Look again at the first thought. I feel as though David refers us to the beginning, because he can imagine the doubts that his listeners have felt during the intervening verses.
