Good morning,

Our devotion for today comes from Proverbs 18:10 (NKJV) "The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe." 

Wherever you are today, meditate on this; when you are confused about the future, go to your Jehovah-raah, your caring shepherd.  When you are anxious about provisions, 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.
     

Have a blessed day in the NAME of the Lord!

Your brother in Christ,
J. H. Flakes, III
