Psalm 124

Psalm 124:8
Our help is in the name of the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.
This verse was a song, fairly popular when I was growing, so I've heard it for who-knows-how-many years.  However, I don't think the words (as few as they are) ever really got into my head like they did reading them here.

It doesn't say that our hope is in God.  It says our hope is in His name.  Could the very name of God be enough to "scare off" the forces of Satan?  We know that God's name, when spoken properly, can have significant power.  But is His name alone enough for us to hope in, or must we know Him for the name to have power?
