Proverbs 18: 10 (NRSVA)

10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
    the righteous run into it and are safe.

Names mean everything. Yet often we regard names as simply tags on a package. But tags on a package are essential. We need to know what is inside the package. When we call on the name of the Lord for protection we can be confident that we are safe. The place of prayer invites us to see the strong tower arising out of the precipice of hope.

It doesn’t mean that we are immune from the struggles of life. It means that we are renewed in our strength. Like a great battery charger,  the tower of the Lord calls us to enter in and be recharged, in the power tower of prayer, enabling us to go out into the world re-energised to face our difficulties.

PRAYER:

Lord,

I’m running into your power tower.
I’m calling out your name.

Re-charge me,
empower me,
engage me,
once more.

Remind me of
my purpose,
my calling,
my hope.
