God is our refuge and strength

“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” (Psalm 46:1)

This verse tells us three important promises about God.

1) He is our refuge (a condition of being safe or sheltered from pursuit, danger, or trouble).

2) He is our strength (the quality or state of being strong, in particular).

3) He is our ever-present help in the time of trouble (assist, aid, lend a helping hand to, give assistance to, come to the aid of).

Therefore

Because God is our refuge, our strength, and our ever-present help in trouble, we can stand firm without fear, confidently trusting Him in every circumstance and running to Him—not away from Him—when difficulties arise.
