We continue our journey towards Knowing God More. The premise being that you trust only those you really ‘know.’ The more we know God, the more we will trust Him. We have learned quite a bit about God through His redemptive names. Let’s take a quick review of what we have learned thus far. God is:
El Shaddai: (Gen 35:11,12) The All Sufficient One
El Elyon: (Gen 14:18-20 ) The Most High God
Adonai: (Is 6:8) Our Master
Jehovah: (Ex 3:14) The Lord of the already, right now, and not yet
Jehovah-Nissi: (Ex 17:15 ) The Lord our Banner and Battle Ax
Jehovah-Rohi: (Ps 23) The Lord our Shepherd
Jehovah-Rapha: (Ex 15:26) The Lord our Healer
Jehovah-Shammah: (Eze 48:35) The Lord that is Present with us
Jehovah-Tsidkenu: (Jer 23:6) The Lord that makes us Righteous
Jehovah-M'kaddesh: (Lev 20:8) The Lord that Sets us Apart
Jehovah-Jireh: (Gen 22:14) The Lord our Provider
Jehovah-Shalom: (Jud 6:24) The Lord our Peace
Jehovah-Sabaoth: (1 Sam 1:3) The Lord of all Armies
El Olam: (Is 26:4) The Lord that lasts Forever
El Gibhor: (Ps 24:8) The Mighty God
El Roi: (Gen 16:13) The Lord that Sees us in Every Situation
Elohim: (Gen 1:1) Our Creative God
As we review the names and better understand God’s character, attributes and nature; the better we understand God. The more we understand Him, the better we get to know Him. The more we know Him, the more we will trust Him. The more we trust Him, the more He will bless us. The more He blesses us, the more we can be a blessing to others.
So what does this mean to you today? It means that we are learning that God can be everything for us and through us if we allow Him to be. Everything we need is wrapped up in Him. Everything we have been, are, and will be is found in Him. He is the author and finisher, creator and sustainer, all and all in our lives. If we are not blessed, it is not because God is not willing to bless us; but rather simply because we do not take the time to get to know Him and obey His commands. Are you ready to be blessed? Make a commitment to know God More Today and more importantly, make a commitment to DO what you learn!
You are my Everything
and I am Your Servant!
Confession for this day: Lord God. You are my Everything! I make a commitment to know You more this year and apply what I learn to my life. My reading leads to learning. My learning leads to living. My living leads to blessing. My blessing allows me to be a blessing to others. I submit and surrender myself to You and You alone. Use me this day and everyday for Your service. Lord, I am available to You!
In Jesus’ name.
Amen!
