The name of God is a strong tower as it is written, “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.” (Proverbs 18:10) There is no any other name that delivers like the name of God.  God gave direction to Moses for the release of the Israelites from the hand of Pharaoh. The power that was given to Moses was the strong tower, the Lord. It is written, “And God spoke to Moses and said to him: ‘I am the LORD. I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty, but by My name LORD I was not known to them.’” (Exodus 6:2-3) Strong tower is power to deliver and the Israelites were delivered out of the bondage of over four hundred years unfailingly.

The same power in the Lord God’s name yesterday is still the same power today, tomorrow and forever. Strong tower of God is where to run to in this wicked world. Will you take to God as strong tower? Through the pages of the Bible, God is recorded as Strong tower to perform and perfect when His is run too. Countless miracles testified to the awesome power in the name of God.

But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.” (1 Samuel 17:45) David terminated Goliath when he ran to the name of the Lord, the strong tower which is in place for the righteous ones.
