‘The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.’ – Proverbs 18:10 NKJV
This is a true and trustworthy statement: The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.
When one runs to the Lord Jesus and calls upon His name, they will surely find safety. It is a promise and so shall it be. All we need to do is to believe that this word is true in every situation. When you call upon His name, even in the midst of spiritual, mental, physical or emotional difficulties, you will be saved.
The righteous run to it and are safe: First, you are made righteous by believing in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. He laid down His life and took it up again to make it possible for you to become a child of God, to become righteous in His sight.
He did this with the intention to make you holy and blameless before Him (Ephesians 1:4). All you need to do is to walk in the Spirit, and walk worthy of this holy calling so that you may be able to take hold of this promise and every other promise in the Bible for righteous people.
PRAYER: Thank you Lord that I can call upon Your name, and find safety. Please give me the grace to trust in your word and always call out to you whenever I am in trouble. Also give me the grace to daily accept what you did for me on the cross and consistently live a righteous life in Jesus name. Amen.
