God as Your Stronghold

Image
Origin "My Life's Stronghold is God." -Ps.27 We read about it several times in the bible that God is a stronghold. Do we know what "stronghold" means? Often, we associate "stronghold" with the devil, like "the devil's stronghold." So, what do we mean by God is my  stronghold ? How does God become a  stronghold?  If you don't know what it means to have God as stronghold, that's a stronghold. Devil as Stronghold When a person has strong propensities to sin and evil, we say that it's due to a stronghold . And we mean that the devil's hold on that person is really strong. No matter how much that person wants to change and start going to church, he just can't. When presented with a situation that makes him choose between good and evil, he is likely to choose evil even if in his mind he wants good. If he chooses good, it'll just be for a moment---probably 5 seconds---and then back to evil again
