Proverbs 18:10  says The  name of the Lord is my stongtower the righteous run into it and they are saved.  The lyrics of this proverb were taken and written into a song that is sung in my church on any given Sunday.  We sing it with so much fervor and conviction. The lyrics say the name of the Lord is my strong tower, the righteous run into it and they are saved.  Blessed me the name of the Lord. It is a  modern day hymn, a song sung unto God about him being strong and mighty, and he saves all that comes into him.  It is also a song  that is shouted or should be shouted in battle.  It is a declaration and exclamation that if we call on the name of our God, he will save us. 

How many of you know what I am talking about?  The enemy had you covered on every side.  There was no way out, but you called on the Lord and he placed a hedge of protection round and about you.  God put up a fortified tower right in the midst of the enemy's camp, and told you to rest easy you are safe. Let take a closer look. Well we know that the definition of strong is having great physical strength and a tower is a extremely tall building.  Their is no one stronger than Our God. He is taller than any situation that we may be facing and in God we find protection from our enemies.  The righteous run into it and they are saved.  We are the righteous - now  don't get it twisted! Its not anything that we have done that made us righteous. The bible says our righteousness is as filthy rags unto God, but he considers us righteous because we are covered by the blood of the Righteous One God's son Jesus the Christ.  We run and not walk because we believe that once we are inside we are indeed safe.  

Are you running into that tower today?  Are you seeking to be saved by the Master today?  Are you looking to be rescued from some traps someone set for you?  Does the enemy have you surrounded on every side?  I want you to know that there is a Savior that has made an escape for you today.  His name is Jesus!    Call on him if you are seeking salvation and you will be saved.  Call on his name if you are in bondage and you need to be freed.  Call on the name of Jesus if you are surrounded, and watch how your enemies may have come in one direction to attack you, but he will flee in seven directions frantically.  Call on the name of Jesus today and be saved.

Grace and Peace,
