It encompasses both physical safety and spiritual assurance, rooted in faith and trust in God. The Bible presents security as a multifaceted concept, involving God's provision, protection, and the believer's trust in His promises. Old Testament Insights In the Old Testament, security is frequently linked to God's covenant with His people. The Israelites' security was contingent upon their obedience to God's laws and commands. In <a href="/deuteronomy/33-12.htm">Deuteronomy 33:12</a>, Moses blesses the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "The beloved of the LORD rests securely beside Him; He shields him all day long, and he rests between His shoulders." This verse highlights the intimate protection and security provided by God to those who are faithful. The Psalms often reflect a deep sense of security in God's presence. <a href="/psalms/4-8.htm">Psalm 4:8</a> states, "I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety." Here, security is portrayed as a result of trust in God's protective care, allowing the believer to rest without fear. New Testament Perspectives In the New Testament, security is closely tied to the person and work of Jesus Christ. Believers find ultimate security in their relationship with Him. In <a href="/john/10-28.htm">John 10:28-29</a>, Jesus assures His followers, "I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand. My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand." This passage emphasizes the eternal security of believers, safeguarded by both the Son and the Father. The Apostle Paul also speaks of security in terms of God's love and the believer's salvation. In <a href="/romans/8-38.htm">Romans 8:38-39</a>, he writes, "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." This assurance of God's unbreakable love provides profound spiritual security. Practical Implications For Christians, security is not merely a physical or temporal concern but a spiritual reality grounded in faith. It involves trusting in God's sovereignty and His promises, even amidst life's uncertainties. <a href="/proverbs/3-5.htm">Proverbs 3:5-6</a> advises, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." This trust leads to a sense of security that transcends circumstances. Moreover, believers are called to seek security in God's wisdom and guidance rather than in worldly possessions or achievements. In <a href="/matthew/6-19.htm">Matthew 6:19-21</a>, Jesus instructs, "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." This teaching encourages Christians to prioritize spiritual security over material wealth. Conclusion While the Bible acknowledges the human desire for security, it redirects this longing towards a reliance on God. True security is found in a relationship with Him, characterized by faith, obedience, and the assurance of His eternal promises.<a name="top" id="top"></a><div class="vheading2">Topical Bible Verses</div><a href="/job/24-23.htm">Job 24:23</a> Though it be given him to be in safety, where on he rests; yet his eyes are on their ways.

The New Testament words (poieo amerimnous), used in <a href="/matthew/28-14.htm">Matthew 28:14</a> (the King James Version "secure you"), guarantee the safety of the soldiers, who witnessed against themselves, in the telling of the story of the disappearance of the body of Christ.
