Proverbs 18:10
The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

God provides a wonderful and strong defense. This is rooted not in a magical saying of His name as if it were a charm or a spell, but in the name of the LORD as a declaration of His character, His person.

Within these walls, which of us needs to worry that the sharpest arrow can harm us? We realize our security from external trouble as we exercise our faith. We are safe from God's avenging justice, from the curse of the law, from sin, from condemnation, from the second death.

God invites all to find refuge in His name; whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Those who humbly run to God and find refuge with Him are His righteous ones, so it is the righteous who run to it.

Application

In your prayer remember the times you took refuge from God running to Him.
