In this message by Connie Giardano the Word of God reveals to us that Jesus Christ is our Strong Tower. Did you know, Beloved, that if you abide in Jesus Christ and keep yourself from sin, that the wicked one cannot touch you? It's true! Read this Scripture and know that God has given you this promise!
We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
1 John 5:18
The enemy cannot touch you, Beloved. Use the power God has given you and rejoice that your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life!
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
Luke 10:19,20

"The Name of the LORD" is a "Strong Tower from the enemy"(Psalm 61:3). We need not fear his breath nor his shadow. For there is a place in God that we can run to for safety. It's called "The Name Of The LORD."
Proverbs 18:10 says - "The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe."
The Lord Jesus is addressed by so many different names throughout the Scriptures. Each one of them represents an answer to a need that we will face throughout our lifetime.
"The Name of the LORD is a Strong Tower" - The word "Strong" implies force, security, majesty, boldness, might, and power. There is only one group that is welcome in this "Tower" - "The righteous." These "sanctified ones" are not nonchalant about their entrance. The Scriptures tell us that "The righteous runneth into it." That means that they run swiftly, move quickly, hurry, and dart about.
Could it be that they are running from danger, evil, harm, temptation, wickedness, etc. - seeking a refuge for their souls? Could it also be that the Scriptures are informing us that their walk is a battleground, and that they are constantly on the move against the forces of evil?
Once they arrive at this "Tower," they know that they are "safe."
How is that?
Simply because the "Tower" is too high for capture, inaccessibly high, and safely set on high. No enemy can penetrate this fortress because of its elevated position - "in heavenly places"(Ephesians 2:6). That is what the word "safe" implies. Also, no enemy can penetrate this fortress because of Whose Name it represents - "in Christ Jesus"(Ephesians 2:6).
The Scriptures instruct us that, by "The Name of the LORD," we are enabled to fight the devil, receive Salvation and Victory, and be kept from all harm and evil.
