God’s Name in Your Heart

“The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.”

God’s Name in Your Heart

When you are confused about the future, go to your Jehovah-raah, your caring shepherd. When you are anxious about provision, talk to Jehovah-jireh, the Lord who provides. Are your challenges too great? Seek the help of Jehovah-shalom, the Lord is peace. Is your body sick? Are your emotions weak? Jehovah-rophe, the Lord who heals you, will see you now. Do you feel like a soldier stranded behind enemy lines? Take refuge in Jehovah-nissi, the Lord my banner.

Meditating on the names of God reminds you of the character of God. Take these names and bury them in your heart. God is: the shepherd who guides,

the Lord who provides,

the voice who brings peace in the storm,

the physician who heals the sick, and

the banner that guides the soldier.
