The Lord also will be a refuge and a high tower for the oppressed, a refuge and a stronghold in times of trouble (high cost, destitution, and desperation). Psalms 9:9 (AMPC)
A stronghold is a fortified place that is impenetrable, and incapable of being overcome, or conquered.This is exactly what the Lord is to us.Our life is hid in the Lord. Colossians 3:3. To be hid in the Lord doesn’t mean we are not exposed to the troubles and dangers in the world. It doesn’t mean we don’t face or go through anything.It means that in the midst of all that’s against us we come out on top, more than conquerors because we are joined with the Lord.The Lord is a stronghold in times of need and hardship. In Him we find security, strength, support and steadiness.
