Introduction:
In this world, we are faced with numerous uncertainties and dangers. It's easy to feel overwhelmed and hopeless, but as Christians, we have a source of comfort and protection that transcends the physical realm. The Word of God is a powerful tool that we can use to find Safety and Security in all areas of our lives. This message will explore some Scriptures highlighting the importance of turning to God's Word for protection.
Scripture #1: Psalm 91:1-2
"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”
This powerful Scripture emphasizes the importance of placing our trust in the Lord. We can rest assured that the Almighty protects us by dwelling in His secret place. The reference to God as a refuge and fortress speaks to His ability to shield us from harm and keep us safe during times of trouble.
Scripture #2: Proverbs 18:10
""The name of the LORD is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe."
This verse from Proverbs reinforces the idea that the Lord is a place of Safety and Security. By calling on His name, we can experience the peace that comes from knowing we are in his care. The tower imagery is fitting, providing a sense of strength and protection.
Scripture #3: Isaiah 41:10
"Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; yes, I will help you and uphold you with My righteous right hand."
In this passage from Isaiah, we see God's assurance that He will always be with us and provide us with the strength and support we need. The words "fear not" are a powerful reminder that we don't need to be afraid when God is on our side.
Scripture #4: John 16:33
"These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. You will have tribulation in the world, but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
This verse from John's gospel offers hope in the face of adversity. Jesus acknowledges that we will face difficulties in this life, but He assures us that we can find peace and comfort in Him. By trusting in Jesus, we can have confidence that we will overcome our challenges.
Scripture #5: Psalm 121:7-8
"The LORD shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The LORD shall preserve your going out and coming in From this time forth, and even always."
This beautiful psalm reminds us that God is always watching over us and protecting us from harm. Not only does he preserve us from evil, but He also preserves our souls and watches over our daily lives. This verse offers a sense of assurance that we can carry with us throughout our day.

These Scriptures remind us to trust the Lord and find peace amid any challenge. Whether facing physical danger or emotional turmoil, the Word of God offers a place of safety and security to which we can always turn.
