Names of God |

Who is God to you? Don’t answer too quickly. Pause…. think… let your mind navigate that question.

As I pondered this thought today, my mind rolled through scenes of my life. All He has done for me, all He has given me, all the moments of pain and joy that He carried me through! How can I adequately articulate who He is to me?

But now, this is what the Lord says—
    He who created you, Jacob,
    He who formed you, Israel:
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
    I have summoned you by name; you are Mine.
²When you pass through the waters,
    I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
    they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
    you will not be burned;
    the flames will not set you ablaze. Isaiah 43:1-2

From Genesis to Revelation, the attributes of God, His character, His heart, His goodness is referred to by many different titles! From Abba to Y’shua, Alpha to Omega, over 900 names and titles¹ still cannot capture the essence of who our God is to His people!

I Am… He is the I Am… everything we need can be found in Him! I find such peace in knowing that no matter what I need, He has a way to meet that need. He holds me in His lap and allows me to rest my head against His chest. His presence eclipses my need when I choose to dwell there! Who is God to me? Daddy! I find my greatest fulfillment in my relationship with Him as a daughter, accepted, valued, loved unconditionally, His princess. THAT fills my love tank!

But who is He to you? He wants to be your everything! But He will start by being your Savior, your Father, your Healer, your Deliverer.

Has it been awhile since you’ve connected with Him? Talk to Him today! Find that quiet place where you can pause and listen. He wants to love on You and draw you into His arms. There’s such peace in that place! He will not reject you! He will not scold you! He will set you on the path He designed for you just as a parent would redirect a child riding his bicycle in the street.

Are you in need today? He is a Way Maker! He is a Miracle Worker! Let Him be who You need today! Our God is a Light in Your Darkest places!²

“God is not human, that He should lie, not a human being, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and then not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?” Number 23:19

“For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through Him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God.” II Corinthians 1:20

What is it that you need in 2018?

I love learning about the names of the Lord sprinkled throughout Scripture! When I need healing, He is Jehovah-Rophe. When I need provision, He is Jehovah-Jireh. When I need forgiveness, He is Jehovah-Tsidkenu. When I need His presence, He is Jehovah-Shammah. He is my Counselor, my Everlasting Father, the God of Angel Armies, and King of kings. When Moses asked God what name he should give to the children of Israel, God’s response was, “I AM WHO I AM.”

Sometimes… I don’t know what I need. I don’t know what to ask for. I don’t have the words to ask. But He knows! I simply need Him! The I AM! HE IS what I need and He knows what my heart needs… He reminds me “I AM enough!”

He is I AM…

He is enough for you! He is enough for me!

I was meditating on this idea when I read from one of my Christmas gifts: “I Hear His Whisper” by Brian Simmons.

“I {God} am enough for you. When you face difficulties and limitations, I will whisper into your heart, “I am enough.” I will not shield you from every hardship, but I am enough as you walk through them with your eyes set on Me. I am enough. I will be your wraparound shield in the midst of difficulty.

Your thoughts cannot contain the love I have for you. And you will never be able to comprehend with your mind the plans that I have for you. Yet I am enough, and all you need to know is that I am here for you.”

No matter who you are or where you’ve been or what you’ve done, you are deeply loved and treasured by God! Turn your eyes to Him and open your heart to His love and grace! You don’t need to change to receive His love; it’s a done deal! He loves you and there’s nothing you can do or not do that will change His love for you!

Whatever 2018 brings, don’t face it alone! You have an advocate in Jesus! He is your Comforter, your Healer, your Deliverer, and the Lover of your soul! Our Heavenly Father, the Great I Am is enough!

May the Lord richly bless you and your family in 2018! May it be a year of wonderful surprises, amazing victories, and Kingdom revelations! May you know God’s deep, unconditional, abiding love more than you ever thought that you could!

Live Loved,
