Our Strong Tower

We're learning that the name of the Lord is a strong tower.  We're learning that we can run to that strong tower and be safe.  So far we have learned to run to the strong tower of Elohim, our Creator God.  We have learned that we are created in His image and that we are created to bring Him glory.  We have learned to run into the strong tower of El Elyon, our sovereign God, the One who sovereignly rules the universe and has everything under control.  We have learned to run into the strong tower of El Roi, the God who sees.  He is the one who is omnipresent - He is present everywhere, and He is the one who is omniscient - who knows it all.  Today we will begin to learn how to run to the strong tower of El Shaddai, sometimes translated God Almighty and sometimes as the All-Sufficient One.  We'll deal with that in greater detail later.

Let's begin here.  Read the following Scriptures.  See what you can learn about El Shaddi, and then we'll begin digging deeper tomorrow.....
