the rock of my strength, my refuge, is in God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Psalm 84:11 (KJV)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Isaiah 12:2 (KJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust , and not be afraid:for the Lord JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Psalm 18:2 (KJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength,&nbsp; in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Psalm 25:14 (KJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him;
