Name Of The Lord

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

Psalm 61:3 – For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe.

Exodus 3:14 – God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.’”

Psalm 144:2 – He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge, who subdues peoples under me.

Application:

  • ·         The reason David appeals to God: God has never failed him as a refuge.
  • ·         “I AM WHO I AM” was the name by which God wished to be known and worshiped in Israel—the name that expressed His character as the dependable and faithful God who desires the full trust of His people.
  • ·         “My loving God” is literally, “my unfailing love”; so called because God is the source of benevolent acts of love that David can count on—just as God can be called “my salvation” because He is the source of salvation.
