SAFE ROOM. In some home, owners have built safe rooms- special places they can go for protection should someone break into the house. In Proverbs 18:10 King Solomon reminded Gods people that God is their safe room and they could find total security in Him. In verses 10 and 11, he described two types of security to which some people run: the same of the Lord and wealth. The name of character of God is described as a strong tower. As captured city might take refuge in a fortified tower, so the righteous could run to the Lord and find complete safety. On the other hand, the wealthy imagined their their riches as a high point of safety. Solomon sought to tell his readers that money might give a sense of security but it would be a false security in the unchanging and holy character of God will find true safety. Wealth may not be your particular safe room. You might tend to run instead to something or someone else when adversity comes. But we all need to learn to depend daily to the Lord and find a high point of safety in the safe room of His name. The name of the LORD is our safe room. The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. - Proverbs 18:10
