Life full of strain and stress. The day in which we have to say, "I cannot" is a day of disaster or victory. Depends on our belief text.
I. THE FORCES THAT ARE AGAINST US.
A. Mystic and strange "wrestle not against flesh and blood."
1. "Going about as roaring lion seeking whom he..."
2. "Have you considered my servant Job?"
Problems of:
B. The age in which we live.
1. Men seem to live quite successfully without God.
2. Long continued victory of evil.
3. Universal pain. These all create stresses and strain and demand we find some place of quietness and peace.
C. The self-life just when you think you have it mastered it appears anew.
D. The Sorrows and bereavements. These are forces against us individually they defeat us, united they destroy us.
II. THE PLACE OF SAFETY "THE NAME JEHOVAH."
A. The name Jehovah.
1. In scriptures revealed by four consonants to JHVH.
2. Refused to pronounce name. Suggesting one who is indescribable.
3. Never linked with qualifying or descriptive adjective. The Jehovah - my Jehovah - The Living Jehovah. The Adonahy - My Elohim - The Living Elohim - The interpretation "The Becoming One." The one who becomes to people just what they need.
B. Five Pictures.
1. Abraham Mt. Moriah - Jehovah Jireh.
2. Moses - conflict with Amelek - Jehovah NISSI.
3. Gideon - farmer called to service - Jehovah Shalom.

III. PROOFS OF SAFETY.
A. Daniel.
1. That he was in den of lions only superficial truth where was Daniel? In the tower of Jehovah in the den.
B. Mother and death of father and brother.
IV. THE NAME JESUS ESSENTIALLY MEANS JEHOVAH IS SALVATION FAITH TESTED TO EXTREMITY?
In conflict? Jesus our banner.
Out look dark? Jesus our righteousness He shall reign.
