“The name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.”
— Proverbs 18:10 (NIV)
Reflection on Today’s Verse
Proverbs 18:10 beautifully portrays the Lord as a source of strength and protection. The imagery of a fortified tower evokes a sense of security and refuge, a place where we can find safety from the storms of life. For the righteous—those who trust in God—His name is a stronghold they can depend on.
This verse reassures us that in times of trouble, we have a place to run to. God’s name embodies His character: faithful, strong, and unchanging. By trusting in Him and seeking refuge in His name, we can experience His protection and peace, no matter the challenges we face.
Personal Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for being my fortified tower and refuge in times of trouble. Help me to run to You and trust in Your protection. Thank You for Your faithfulness and the safety I find in Your name. Strengthen my faith and remind me of Your ever-present help. Amen.
