Ps. 18:2
The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
Built over seventy-eight years ago, Fort Knox Gold Depository, was designed to protect America’s most valuable resource. Being the worlds most secure facility, it required over 17,000 feet of granite, 4,500 yards of concrete, 775 tons of reinforced steel and 700 tons of structural steel with a vault door twenty-one inches thick and weighing twenty tons. It is guarded by an aviation unit consisting of armed Apache helicopters, one engineer battalion, a brigade, and a division totaling approximately thirty-thousand soldiers. No one enters in with out the proper credentials.
There are those who would love to penetrate the walls of Fort Knox, and get their hands on the precious metal housed in the facility. The only problem with that is it would require an army and a caravan of vehicles to make it happen. Because of its construction and safe guards, no one has ever attempted that feat since it was been built.
Like Fort Knox, we have a fortress that the enemy can not penetrate. It is built on a solid foundation, fortified by God, and protected by a host that is gathered around us; making it impossible for the enemy to enter. He may attack from every angle, try to gain access through false pretense, and even bombard us; but his attempts are futile. In the end, we will overcome through Jesus Christ, the Savior of our soul. So don’t loose hope, we have something better than Fort Knox.

“Where does your security lie? Is God your refuge, your hiding place, your stronghold, your shepherd, your counselor, your friend, your redeemer, your Saviour, your guide? If He is, you don’t need to search any further for security.”
