Protection in His Name

Greetings, Precious Family. May the Peace of the Lord be with you always.

Proverbs 18:10
New International Version

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

Family, there are moments in life when we become keenly aware of our need for God’s protection. Sometimes the attacks are obvious. Other times they come quietly through fear, anxiety, discouragement, temptation, confusion, or restless nights that leave us feeling unsettled and weary.

Throughout Scripture, God’s people found safety not in their own strength but in the Lord Himself. Proverbs 18:10 paints a powerful picture: the name of the Lord is a fortified tower. In biblical times, a fortified tower was a place of refuge during battle. When danger approached, people ran to the tower because they knew they would be protected there.

What makes this verse so beautiful is that it reminds us where our safety is found. The righteous are not safe because they are strong. They are safe because they know where to run.

As believers, we have been given the precious name of Jesus. His name carries authority over every power of darkness, every scheme of the enemy, and every fear that seeks to overwhelm our hearts. When we call upon the name of Jesus, we are not reciting a formula; we are placing our trust in the One who has all authority in heaven and on earth.

There have been times in my own life when I have felt under attack. In those moments, I have learned that my greatest weapon is not panic but prayer. My greatest defense is not fear but faith. When I call upon the name of Jesus, I am reminded that I belong to Him and that He is watching over me.

The enemy may try to disturb our peace, but he cannot remove us from the protective care of our Savior. We can pray over our minds, our homes, our families, our bodies, and even our sleep. We can rest knowing that the God who never slumbers nor sleeps is faithfully watching over His children.

What is it about the name of Jesus?

His name is a refuge for the weary. His name is a shelter in the storm. His name is a defense against the enemy. His name is a fortified tower for all who run to Him.

Today, whatever battle you may be facing, do not focus on the size of the attack. Focus on the strength of the tower. Run to Jesus. You will find that His protection is greater than anything that comes against you.

Let Us Pray

Spiritof the Living God, Thank You for being our refuge, our fortress, and our strong tower. Thank You for the protection that is found in Your presence and in the mighty name of Jesus.

When fear tries to overwhelm us, teach us to run to You. When attacks come against our minds, remind us that our thoughts belong to Christ. When discouragement seeks to steal our peace, help us stand firmly upon Your promises.

Lord, we ask for Your protection over our homes, our families, our bodies, our minds, and our sleep. Surround us with Your peace and guard us from every scheme of the enemy. Let Your presence fill every place where fear has tried to enter.

Thank You that we do not stand alone. Thank You that the name of Jesus is greater than every power of darkness and stronger than every attack we may face. Help us trust You completely and rest securely in Your care.

We run to You today, our Strong Tower, knowing that in You we are safe. In the powerful and precious name of Jesus, Amen, Amen and Amen.

Good morning, Beloved and Precious Family:

God has revealed some powerful and serious images to me recently. The time of sitting back and waiting for someone else to take of care of things is gone. The Lord needs people to be active in their faith and stand for Love and Unity in God. The only time your brother/sister is your enemy is if they are going against good and spreading hate, discord and evil. Even then it is not the flesh and blood of our brothers and sisters that is evil, but rather it is the evil that they have allowed to reside within their hearts. It is time to start speaking into the atmosphere IN THE NAME OF JESUS. It is time to rebuke, cast out, and take back what we should have never allowed into the atmosphere.

For this post to make sense, I will reveal what the Holy Spirit showed me. I was walking down the hall of my house and all of a sudden the Holy Spirit showed me people who were worshipping evil. The more they worshipped evil, the Holy Spirit showed me the increase in horror movies, deplorable music, violent video games, hatred toward one another and people turning away from church. The Holy Spirit showed me Christians just standing and watching and doing nothing.

The time for standing and watching and doing nothing is over. The world needs an over saturation of Love, Peace, Harmony, and Unity. Pray for each other. Think about how you can bless your friends, family, neighbors, strangers, and even those you don’t get along with very well. We cannot let evil win. We can’t wait for someone else to do these things. It’s time for us to take our places. No more lukewarm Love. Love is an ACTION WORD.

Pray for peoples healing, in Jesus name.

Pray for your neighbors, in Jesus name.

Pray for the entertainment industry to demolish evil, in Jesus name.

I pray for your ear gates, eye gates, mouth gates to be covered by the Blood of Jesus, in Jesus name.

I pray for peace in your heart, in your home, in your family, in Jesus name.

I pray for every angel in Heaven’s Army of God. I pray that your assignments from God not be blocked, hindered, or halted. I pray for victory in the unseen battles, in the Spirit of God.

I speak the Name of Jesus over this world. I come against every witch, warlock, evil divination, curse, and disobedient spirit, in Jesus Name. Jesus have your way. Replace what was evil with love, light, goodness, unity, and peace.

Cleanse our hearts, minds, and ears. May we turn to you. May we not fear, but instead may we trust in you. I pray for the restoration of Faith and Love.

May a pentecostal fire of Love and Unity move over this globe. No more lukewarm Love.

Prayers, Affirmations, & Scripture

Psalm 51:7-17

Living Bible

7 Sprinkle me with the cleansing blood[a] and I shall be clean again. Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow. 8 And after you have punished me, give me back my joy again. 9 Don’t keep looking at my sins—erase them from your sight. 10 Create in me a new, clean heart, O God, filled with clean thoughts and right desires. 11 Don’t toss me aside, banished forever from your presence. Don’t take your Holy Spirit from me. 12 Restore to me again the joy of your salvation, and make me willing to obey you. 13 Then I will teach your ways to other sinners, and they—guilty like me—will repent and return to you. 14-15 Don’t sentence me to death. O my God, you alone can rescue me. Then I will sing of your forgiveness,[b] for my lips will be unsealed—oh, how I will praise you.

16 You don’t want penance;[c] if you did, how gladly I would do it! You aren’t interested in offerings burned before you on the altar. 17 It is a broken spirit you want—remorse and penitence. A broken and a contrite heart, O God, you will not ignore.

I love you with the amazing and everlasting love of Jesus, The Christ. It is in his name that I do pray. Father God, may it be a fragrant offering in your ear. It is so and forever more shall be, Amen.

Rev. Marcia Davis
