That’s a lot of power!

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. (Proverbs 18:10)

 The safest place in the world for you is close to God and where He wants you to be. No matter where that is or who is against you, He will keep you.
 Don’t worry; God will not allow us to be tempted beyond what we are able to bear. He doesn’t let the devil give us more than we can take, but He does sometimes let the devil test us to see if we’ll depend on Him and His promises in the Word even in difficult circumstances.
 All through the Bible the Lord miraculously empowered and protected those who turned to Him for help. And the same miracles of power and protection that occurred back in Bible times can happen today. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever!”
 If Jesus could do those miracles in His day, then He can still do them today. God is still the God of miracles, and what He’s done before, He can do again.
 Jesus said, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth!” That’s a lot of power! And if you’ve accepted Jesus into your life and heart, you have access to that power as well.
 God has not only promised all this power and protection, but He’s promised it for right now and for you, if you believe! —DBB [1]

King David is a great example of someone who knew God as his refuge. “My salvation and my honour depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.” - Psalm 62:7–8.
