We know God is our refuge through Scripture, which reassures us of His presence and help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1).
The assurance that God is our refuge comes from His Word, explicitly stated in Psalm 46:1 where it is proclaimed that 'God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.' This declaration serves to remind believers of God’s immutable nature as a protective force against life's adversities. The Bible also illustrates God's refuge through types such as the cities of refuge in the Old Testament, which provide a parallel understanding of safety and protection in Christ, the ultimate refuge for His people.
