Description
What s in a name? Plenty, it turns out. Each name for God in Scripture reveals a wonderful aspect of His nature that can meet your deepest needs, comfort you in times of personal tragedy, and release you to new heights of praise in times of joy. God is so vast that the heavens cannot contain Him. Likewise, His personality is so complex that one name cannot adequately describe Him. Throughout the Bible, God revealed Himself to His people through His various names. In 30 Meditations on the Names of God, Marilyn Hickey and Sarah Bowling share their heartfelt thoughts about the importance of meditating on God s Word and how meditating specifically on the names of God can help us with every need. When we are fearful, we can pray to Him as Jehovah Shalom, the Lord my Peace. When we are uncertain of His will, we can seek Him as Jehovah Rohi, the Lord my Shepherd. As Jehovah Jireh, the Lord our Provider, God is letting us know that He sees ahead of our need and makes provision for it. God is our health and well-being as Jehovah Rophe, the Lord our Healer. No matter what you re going through or how you feel, knowing God s names can give you comfort and confidence to invite Him into your life.
