This is a message from Dr. Michael Yousef, Bible teacher, on leading the way.

Our prayer is that it will encourage you in your walk of faith.

And if you'd like to learn more about Dr. Youssef and the ministry of leading the way,

the place to start is l-tw.org.

Proverbs 18, verse 10, 11, 12, it's a contrast between those who know where to go for peace and

contentment and those who don't. Those who place themselves in the tower of the name of God and those who

hide behind a flimsy wall of wealth.

I want you to imagine two people.

One is safe and secure behind a fortified tower,

tower that no one can touch, no one can destroy,

no one can scale, no one can penetrate.

And then the other one behind one of those flimsy Hollywood prop.

It looks like a wall, it looks like a tower, but it really is flimsy.

You push it and would fall.

First, let me tell you about the strong and powerful,

impertable shelter. Many of you know the reason God revealed to us in his word so many names of God

is because he wants us to know him completely, to know his character, because every one of those

words reveal a certain part of God's character. And there we see them in the Old Testament and

in the New Testament. First, you find Elohim, and that's the name of the Creator God, and it occurs

2,700 times in the Old Testament and 32 times in the New Testament.

He is strong tower in creation.

Secondly, his name is L, which means he is the Lord of Power and Might.
