Knowing God by Name

The bible mentions God by many different names, depending on the specific aspects of His character.

Since I was very young, I enjoyed learning the different names of God - but I didn't really know what they meant.

While doing the study Lord Teach Me to Pray by Kay Arthur I found a list of the names of God and I have gone back to that list many times since I first read this book a year ago.

Check this out!

• Elohim Genesis 1:1 Creator
• El Elyon Genesis 14:18-20 The Most High (Sovereign)
• Jehovah-Tsidkenu Jeremiah 23:6 The Lord our Righteousness
• Jehovah-Jirah Genesis 22:14 The Lord with provide
• Jehovah-Roi Psalm 23:1 The Lord is my Shepherd

The Bible tells us "The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous runs into it and is safe." Proverbs 18:10

Which name from the chart deals with where you are today?

For me, the Lord is my peace (Jehovah-Shalom).
