My friend, it's a joy to greet you today. When God's people of Israel received manna from heaven, they were overjoyed. It was so tasty. You are going to receive such a promise from God straight from heaven today. God says in Proverbs 18:10, "The name of the Lord is a fortified tower. The righteous run into it, and they are safe." It's true, my friend. If you run and hide under the name of the Lord and carry that name upon you, saying, “I am Your child, Lord,” then you are completely safe. No evil can come and destroy you. Nothing can ruin your soul. Your life will not be destroyed, and you are safe in the hands of God.

If you look at the game of cricket, there are two batsmen on either side. When they hit the ball, you can see them immediately running to the other side to reach the other line. And once they reach that line, the referee or the umpire says you are completely safe. Nobody can take you. You cannot get out. That's it. They are safe. That's the way you have to be. You have to run to the Lord's name. Yes, literally run so that no evil can touch you.

If you are left in the open, having no covering of the name of God, without being the child of God, you are left open to the attacks of the devil to destroy you. My friend, it's essential to hide under His name and to claim, "I am Your child today, Lord." Then no attack of the evil can prosper over you. God protects you. You are safe.

PRAYER: 
Dear Lord, thank You for being my refuge, my strong tower, and my safe hiding place. Today, I run into Your name in faith, declaring, “I am Your child, Lord.” I trust that no evil can come near me, no darkness can overcome me, because I am held safely in Your mighty hands. Cover me with Your protection, shield my heart and soul, and let Your name be my banner in every battle I face. I believe that You will go before me, stand behind me, and surround me on every side. Thank You, Lord, for being my safety, my hope, and my strength. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
