What is In A Name? Names Of God....
Who is God to you? Is He your Most High God, All sufficient One, Master, Lord of Peace, Lord Who Will Provide? Is He your Father, your Jehovah Raah, the Lord your Shepherd?
What does a "Name" mean. I am a female, Joshua's Mother, Duane's wife. I am Gramma. I am and I always will be. My "Names" identify me.
The Names of God show us Who He is, His character and His Nature. We can count on what His "Names" mean. His "Names" tells us Who He IS and What He Will Do. We can count on Him to fulfill His "Names" meanings. They identify Him and the way He responds.

Which Names of God do you have a personal knowledge of God by. Do you personally and intimately know God as your Jehovah Rapha? The Lord that heals you? Do you know him personally and intimately as Jehovah Jireh? The Lord Who provides for you! Is He your Adonia - Your Lord and Your Master? Or, are you still attempting to rule your own life? Are you confident that He is your Jehovah Ra'ah, The Lord your Shepherd? Are you at peace in your life knowing that He really IS your Shepherd in every aspect of your life?
Meditate on the Names of God. Realize that every Name reveals another part of Who He is for you. He is Jehovah Rapha. It is Who He Is. He is Your Healer. He can't turn back from Who He is. It is His nature to heal you. Healing is what He Does!
