Hebrew · TZOOR
Tzur
צוּר
Rock — unshakable foundation and fortress
Symbol: The massive cliff the builders cut into — rooms of refuge in stone
“He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just.”
Deuteronomy 32:4
Moses' closing song called God the Rock — the one unmovable reality in a shifting world.
What the name means
A rock is where you build (Matthew 7), where you hide (Psalm 18) and where you stand — the same God for every need.
Israel drank from the Rock in the wilderness; Paul says that Rock was Christ — your Rock supplies as well as stabilizes.
To call God Tzur is to transfer weight: stop standing on what shifts.
How to pray this name
- Pray: 'Rock, I set my feet on You' — then name what you had been standing on instead.
- Build on Him daily through obedience; the storm tests foundations, not feelings.
Tzur, my Rock, I plant my feet on You alone. Be my foundation, my fortress and my high place. In the Mighty Name of Jesus! Amen.
Declaration
The LORD is my Rock — storms may come, but I will not be shaken.
