My Fortress

“The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my Savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection.” 2 Samuel 22:3

This makes me think of Superman’s Fortress of Solitude. It’s where he went to connect with Jor-El, his father, to learn about his homeland and about His identity.

But this verse doesn’t say we have a fortress to learn about our Father and our identity it says God, our Father, is our fortress. In Him we find our identity. In Him we are safe. Something to think on.

PS 2 Samuel 22 relates to Psalm 18.

Defender and Vindicator

“No weapon forged against you will prevail & you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their vindication from Me,” declares the Lord. Isaiah 54:17 NIV

This doesn’t say no one and no thing will ever come against you. This says weapons will form & people will talk. But God is your defense. He prevents the weapons from prevailing & He vindicates you, because you are His.
