The Strong Tower Has Us Covered

“The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the [consistently] righteous man [upright and in right standing with God] runs into it and is safe, high [above evil] and strong.” The name that is above every name, Jesus, is filled with the power of the Godhead (Colossians 2:9). As we learn the reason why all that power and authority has been put in the name of Jesus, we understand how to utilize that power against the demonic enemies that come after us. His name becomes a strong tower of protection and the righteous run into it, (that understanding of His name) and are safe because of it. The consistently righteous, those who have been washed of all their sin by the blood of Jesus are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. We are sanctified, set apart by God at the new birth, but being consistently righteous has to do with our will. As we miss the mark because of wrong doings on our part, that’s when we ask the Lord to forgive us, don’t just let it go like it’s alright, but acknowledge the sin to God and He will forgive you, it’s His word. 1 John 1:9 was written to christians, not sinners, because we’re still not perfect. He can do more for you, and be involved with everything concerning your life as long as He doesn’t have to wade through sin in your life to get to you. God can’t stand sin, so without your confession of messing up, there’s no acknowledgement or establishing of the fact you missed the mark of staying blameless, the Lord needs that from us confirming our humility to His commandments. The strong tower is for the Lord’s family. Learn the rules and signs of how to get the most out of the tower experience for your safety.
