```DESTINY DISCOVERY AND MOLDING MESSAGE```
♦ *TOPIC: TRUE SECURITY - IN HIS NAME*
*_By: Judah Olatunde_*
Proverbs 18:10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
Security in Christ Jesus is conditional, this means that you can’t be secured if certain conditions are not met. What then are the conditions based on proverbs 18:10?
1. You must be righteous
2. You must run into Him
Inasmuch as true security can be found in His name, the ending portion of our text in Proverbs 18:10 confirms that, for you to enjoy that security, you must take a certain step which is to run into Him.
You know, I have heard someone say "God will do whatever He wants to do irrespective of what you do, whether you do something or do nothing". The real truth is that "with or without you, God remains God and cannot deny Himself but God won't do anything in your own life if you refuse to do something.
What I am saying is that, nothing is free in God, someone may say "this is heretic because salvation is free". Well do you really believe in scriptures? Am sure you do. Was Jesus not sacrificed as a Lamb without blemish for the sins of the whole world? Sure He was, so do you see that even as free as salvation is, someone paid for it and someone else must still take a step further to confess before he/she gets saved.
If salvation was really free, Jesus wouldn't have been sacrificed for sins and if we all can just be saved by merely knowing that Jesus died then everyone should have been saved because everyone knows that Jesus died but only those who believe, accept and confesses Christ gets saved.
This same principle governs the operation of God, you can't be kept in perfect peace if your mind is not stayed on Him. The righteous has to run into the name that is a strong tower for he/she to be safe.
*Insights for today: You can find rest and true security in Him*
*_Prayer point: Father, teach and help me to trust in your name in Jesus name. Keep walking by faith_*
DAILY BIBLE READING PLAN: Psalms 120 and 2 Cor 9
