The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
The righteous run to it and are safe.
Proverbs 18:10 NKJV
As humans we have a need to feel secure and safe. The problem with this is, that we often try to find our security in things that won’t last.
It is important to realize that we should find our security in the Lord who is the strong tower.
At castles you will often find a tower. In the olden days, a castle had a wall built around it and on the corners of that perimeter wall, stood towers. These towers were used as lookout points to warn those who were inside of oncoming threats.
Jesus is our strong and mighty tower. He warns us of the dangers around us each day and He gives us the security that we need to be safe.
Jesus is our safe tower.
