Your refuge is in God. As you think about the word "refuge", think about what it means. When you take refuge, you are sheltered and you are safe from the pursuit of the enemy. You are kept safe from danger and you are safe from trouble. That is why it is so important for us to take refuge in God.
God said in His Word that He is a refuge to those who are oppressed. (Psalm 9:9). With oppression comes persecution, distress, and unjust treatment. The devil will always try to keep you under his rule or should I say rules and his authority but God sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross so that you could be free from oppression. He wants you to know that He is your defense. He is our refuge and our fortress. Know that God's fortress is a place of protection from the attacks of the enemy.
The devil wants you to live your life in a place of fear. A place where you always feel as though you are in imminent danger. A place where you feel like something is hanging over your life and you feel as though something is always about to happen. That place is totally different from the place God wants you to be. God wants you in the place of refuge with Him because when you take refuge in Him, you live in a place of peace because you know no matter what happens, God is with you and you are shielded and protected by, in, and with Him.
