The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. (Proverbs 18:10)

Have you experienced the power of Jesus name?  Have you called on the Lord lately?  Sometimes, I think we forget the power that can be harnessed by calling on God.  We forget who God is and the vast character He possesses.  Is this you?  Have you forgotten who God is for you?  Let’s take a look at some of the names used to describe God in the Word.  Let’s call upon the Lord and find the comfort that only He can give.

1.  My Healer

“Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits–who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases.”  ~Psalm 103:2-3

2.  My Redeemer

“I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand upon the earth.”  ~Job 19:25

The Steering Wheel

…for the joy of the Lord is our strength. (Nehemiah 8:10)

I would like to start using Mondays as a day to share what God is doing in my life.  It was a question I often asked back in college and have now asked many times since to friends I meet along the way.  I would like to ask this question of you.  Let’s take Mondays to reflect back on the week before and see what God is doing in our lives.  Let’s take time to be grateful for His work and stand in awe of His glory.  Please find time to glance and see every minor and major detail God has taken care of in your life.  Take time to rejoice in His faithfulness.

There are many things that I continue to learn and I will share them every week.  One popular theme in my life now is God’s strength.  I daily have to surrender myself to the strength He provides.  The part that becomes a battle for me is that I want to be the strong one.  I want to take care of everything on my own.  I want to fix the problems that arise.  I want to find the solutions.  I want to get ahead of God.  But no such luck!  I’m not strong enough!  I’ll never be strong enough.  The Bible teaches me that over and over.

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm.  Let nothing move you.  Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. (1 Corinthians 15:58)

STAND FIRM: Take a stand for what you believe in today!  Let God be the rock that you stand on and on that rock stand firm.  That’s right the Bible says, “stand firm.”  Do not back down from the Truth that is revealed in God’s Word!  Stand firmly for the things of God and let people around you know the Truth in LOVE!
