I assume that you are speaking specifically, mostly to this section

11For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.
13You will tread on the lion and the adder;
the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.

My first observation and question is - - -  what makes you think it is and "end time prophecy"?

It is a psalm, a song of deliverance from enemies, and the like could well be David, glorifying God, singing about His protection. The psalms to at times, contain prophetic material.

Then there is this:

9And he took him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here, 10for it is written,

“‘He will command his angels concerning you,
to guard you,’

11and

“‘On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.’”

12And Jesus answered him, “It is said, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’” 

There, the devil applies it to Jesus, and Jesus does not say "dude, that is not about me, it is about some other Jesus or King" Why would we think that if cannot apply to Jesus, where are you getting the "no Jesus allowed" notion in this psalm?

There is nothing that identifies this as a prophecy, let alone and end time prophecy, and so it is improper to try to make this into one.

Finally, as to who the psalm is adressing, that is stated in the beginning of the psalm, it describes the application to those who are protected:

1He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

They are those, who enjoy God's protection.

[R. Hartono]

Its about the raptured saints into the Millennium of Christ.

 

Jesus bless you all.

To me, Psalm 91 is a promise from the Lord for my protection in every and any way of my life. That also includes my family and people whom I care for, in which I pray all the time.

 

Psalm 91 also has a connotation that implies certain events that had happened or going to happen. "The arrow that flies by day, the pestilence that stalks in the darkness and the plague that destroys at midday" appear to be missiles attack and bioweapons. Then "the deadly pestilence" refers to diseases that plagued people worldwide.

 

I think whatever disasters that had already happened or happening, and those which will be happening would have been covered in this Psalm.

Is it solely an end time prophecy, or is it also a referent to the life of the Christian believer?

Satan seems to believe it was written about Jesus.
