Last night SisterChicks finished our study Knowing God by Name, by Mary Kassian, and I’m so blessed to have gone through this book. On a selfish note, I enjoyed going through it because it was my “pick” and I just enjoyed hearing that everyone liked it. Here are the names of God that we studied:
Lord – Jehovah
God
Lord – Master
The First and the Last
Sovereign Lord
Holy God
Abounding in Love
Merciful and Gracious
Faithful and True
Excellent in Wisdom
Mighty Power
Lord Creator
God Who Works Wonders
Lord Healer
God Almighty
King of Ages
King Lord of Hosts
King of Kings
King of Nations
Righteous Judge
God of Glory
Everlasting Light
Majestic Glory
Great and Awesome God
God of My Praise
God Sees Me
God with Us
God of Our Fathers
Father
Jealous God
My Redeemer
My God My Rock
The Lord My Shepherd
The Lord My Portion
God My Exceeding Joy
Whew! Isn’t that amazing? And those aren’t even all the names for God! My personal favorite was “God My Exceeding Joy.” I love knowing that God desires for me to be joyful and not take everything so seriously, but to have some SERIOUS JOY because of the work He’s done in my life 🙂
Now says the Lord, He who created you…”Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. …For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior…you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you.” Isaiah 43: 1, 3-4
