Bible Names of God: My Fortress

Posted: January 26, 2009 in Names of God

My Fortress

Psalm 18:2 The LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, [and] my high tower. {my strength: Heb. my rock}

The Lord is not only a Rock upon which we may stand and meet every test and trial, but he is a “Fortress” — a place of safety and protection from our enemies. We can HIDE in Him. [Col 3.3] No enemy can breach the fortification when we are “Safe in the arms of Jesus. We can turn to Him in times of danger and distress, remembering that, “The Name of the Lord is a Strong Tower; the righteous runneth into it and are safe.”
