21 Names of God, #10, El Nehkumah

Friends, if I was standing before you talking to your group, or sitting beside you having a private conversation, I would implore your attention to this next thought. Our God isn’t sitting in heaven with His hands folded waiting to send Jesus back to get His own. I mean, He IS going to do just that, but in the mean time He is not sitting as a spectator to your life. He is as alive today as He has always been. Sisters, God is alive. He is in every detail of our lives. His Word is alive and well

21 Names of God, #9, Jehovah Magen

A shield for the battles in our lives. For the physical and for the battle of our minds. The evil one knows if he can infect our minds with his nasty lies-about us, about others, about life, and about God, he will steal our hope. But, when we belong to the Lord, hope is alive. Greater is HE who is in me than he who is in the world. Our hope is alive, the battle is God’s, His Shield is our help: Jehovah Magen.

21 Names of God, #8 Jehovah Tsuri

It may seem like there are better names for the God you are depending on to save you-even your very life, do you think? Rock. What is it about a rock that is indicative to saving us? What good is a rock? (This is when I should have paid better attention to when my brothers played rock-paper-scissors. I suddenly wonder, how often did the rock beat out the other two? This is a silly and mostly hypothetical interrupting thought. My friends and I call it “a squirrel.” You may know it as a rabbit trail…back to the mainland, now.)

Peek into Proverbs, 11

I can almost say, even if you were born yesterday, you know wicked is joining forces more and more. But God. We live righteousness-by God’s power-and we teach righteousness-by God’s grace. The world rocks and rolls in wickedness, but God saves His own.

21 Names of God; #7, El Elyon

Higher than everything. Everything. Exalted above ALL. Sovereign. The God who made you, who loves you, who sent His son who died for you-that God is sovereign. See that “reign” in this characteristic? It counts! God is sovereign, He has supreme power & authority, HE REIGNS the extreme utmost.
