The Name of the Lord Is A strong Tower. Part-1

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe.

Proverbs 18:10 ESV

According to Strong’s Concordance, the Hebrew word for “name” is, ‘shem’ (H8034) which means, “reputation, fame, or glory.” The name, reputation, and track record of the Lord are strong. He is undefeated. He is champion. He is your strong tower. God is your mighty fortress. There is no one like Him. His character is strong. His reputation and authority have no end. He is mighty. 

The authority and power of God extend past human capacity and intellect. His authority extends past your fears. His power expands beyond your limits, talents, skills, and abilities. His influence, might, authority, and strength stretch beyond your reach and outperform your best attempt. Choose to put your trust in God. Choose to place your hope in God. Choose to lay at His feet. Choose to trust that He is your mighty tower. He is your battle ax. Nothing can defeat Him. He is your fortress. You are safe in Him. 

The Lord is a mighty tower where his people can run for safety—
the rich think their money is a wall of protection.

Proverbs 18:10 CEV

Choose to meditate on His Word. Choose to focus on His promises. Choose to place your hands in His. Choose to trust Him. He is your emotional fortress. He is your physical fortress from danger. He is your financial fortress. He is your strong tower. Put your heart in His hands. Put your life in His hands. He is your true champion. Nothing can be compared to Him. Nothing can defeat Him. No one can outrank Him. He remains undefeated for all of eternity. So give Him your temporary problem. Hide in Him. He is your strong tower. You are safe in Him. 

The name of the Lord is a strong tower.—The “name of the Lord” signifies the titles by which He has made Himself known, descriptive of His attributes, as “merciful, gracious, longsuffering, abundant in goodness and truth,” &c. (Exodus 34:5; Exodus 34:7); the righteous takes refuge in these, and finds himself in safety, lifted above the trouble which seemed ready to overwhelm him. The rich man’s strong city” and “high wall” are such only in “his own conceit,” and fail him in the time of need. – Bible Hub

May the Lord be your strong tower.
