Names of God

 

At the beginning of each year I have picked a name of God to hold as my own - a name he has chosen for me and will use to reveal his character to me during the year.  We will take time this year to study some names of God.  Each month we will pick a new name and write a little about that name.  Study the name and share what God has revealed to you in the comments.  This first month let us know what name you have chosen for the year.  We may pick that as one of our feature names beginning in March!

What name have you chosen?

 

God reveals his character to us in his names.  Did you know that there are over 600 names of God in the Bible?  

We are going to take this year to study who He is through his names.  

Have you chosen one for this year?

Here is a link of Jehovah names and another link for names of Jesus.  Take some time to pray over them and see which names God is putting on your heart.  Make a list and as you continue to pray through those names He will reveal one to you (and sometimes more than one!)

Here is my story...One of the first names I chose was Jehovah-Jireh (My Provider) in 2007.  Little did I know what lay ahead that year.  My husband suffered from a massive stroke in May.  Our world turned upside down.  During the year we had so many needs and at times I had no idea how they were going to be taken care of.  Time and again Jehovah-Jireh provided for each and every need.  I came to know and trust him in ways I did not think possible.  I have learned that He is my provider.  He always knows what I need.  He is always on time.  He also does it in unexpected ways that you could never imagine!  By holding onto that name I came to know His character as my Provider.  In the years since he has been faithful to reveal his character in so many other ways as I seek Him.  Don't let this story scare you!  God loves you so much that whatever plans he has for you is not to harm you but to bring you into a closer love relationship with himself.  I am thankful that he gave me that name to hold onto and how beautifully he revealed himself to me in that way.  Our God is amazing!

Claim a name for 2012! Begin to seek Him and see what he wants to teach and show you through the name you chose.  He wants to reveal himself to you in new and real ways.  Are you willing?  Believe me - you will be glad you did!

So what name will you chose?  Let us know by leaving a comment! (Your comment will automatically enter you in the February contest!)
