Prayer – The Name Of The Lord Is A Strong Tower

In Proverbs 18:10, it says, “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.”

What does it mean for the name of the Lord to be a strong tower? A tower is a tall, strong structure that is used for protection. It provides a safe place for those inside to retreat to, in times of danger. In the same way, the name of the Lord is a place of protection for us. It is a stronghold, a fortress that cannot be shaken.

But how do we run to the name of the Lord and find safety in it? The key is in the word “righteous.” To be righteous means to live in a right relationship with God, to follow His commands and seek to do His will.

When we strive to live a righteous life, we can run to the name of the Lord with confidence, knowing that He will provide protection and refuge for us.

But the name of the Lord is not just a physical place of safety. It is also a source of strength and comfort for us. In Psalm 20:1, it says, “May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob protect you!”

When we call upon the name of the Lord in times of trouble, He hears us and provides us with the strength and comfort we need to get through whatever challenges we are facing.

So, let us make the name of the Lord a strong tower in our lives. Let us strive to live a righteous life and turn to His name in times of trouble. May we find safety, strength, and comfort in His loving embrace.

Let Us Pray

Oh Lord, I thank You because You are trustworthy. Those who look up to You will be radiant with glory, and their faces will never blush with shame. Some trust in chariots, and some in horses. Some trust in good connections, education and financial abilities. But as for me, I will remember your Name, oh Lord my God.

Philippians 2:9-11 Therefore, God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

My Strong Tower Of Protection

My God, Your name is my strong tower of refuge and protection. In it, I find safety and peace like still waters. When I am afraid, worried and troubled, I will find reassurance, comfort and rest in Your Name.

My Lord, in this world, I will face trouble, persecution, rejection and disappointments. But Your name is the emergency number that I can call for rescue. When I am overwhelmed and when I can barely think straight, help me to stop and call on Your Name.

Acts 2:21 Everyone who calls on the Name of the LORD will be saved.

Romans 8:28: And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

Call On The Name Of The Lord

Your word says that whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Lord, the power to save, to deliver and to set free is in Your  name. When I call on You I will be saved from any danger, trouble and anything giving me sleepless nights.

You are the horn of my salvation my God. Help me to be different from the unbelievers who trust in their own strength and wisdom. Today, I want to earnestly call on Your name for help, guidance, and protection. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen.

2 Timothy 4:18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed and bring me safely into his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Psalm 91:14 “Because he loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
