"The Lord is my fort where I can enter and be safe; no one can follow me in and slay me. He is a rugged mountain where I hide; he is my Savior, a rock where none can reach me, and a tower of safety. He is my shield. He is like the strong horn of a mighty fighting bull. All I need to do is cry to him---oh, praise the Lord---and I am saved from all my enemies!
~ Psalm 18:2 & 3 LAB

Bible Commentary: "God's protection of his people is limitless and can take many forms. David characterized God's care with six military symbols.
"God is like:
1) a fort or place of safety where the enemy can't follow;
2) a rugged mountain full of hiding places,
3) a rock that can't be penetrated by any who would harm us;
4) a tower high above our enemies,
5) a shield that comes between us and harm,
6) a horn to scare the enemy away or to warn us if he comes too close.
"If we need protection, look to God."
