The Bible Says
Proverbs 18:10 Meaning

One of the most comforting verses in the chapter appears here in Proverbs 18:10The name of the LORD is a strong tower; The righteous runs into it and is safe (v. 10). God Himself is presented as refuge.

The name of the LORD points to His revealed character—His faithfulness, power, covenant love, and rule over all things. His name is called a strong tower because He is not fragile, uncertain, or partial. He is a place of real security.

The righteous runs into it and is safe, this provides an active image. The righteous do not merely admire God from a distance; they flee to Him in trust. Safety here is not the promise of a trouble-free life, but the assurance that those who entrust themselves to God are sheltered in the truest and deepest sense.
