Your Name 4 God

-
As our study group has been on this journey of understanding the various names of God, I am reminded that it is us (the human) who see God’s character and tries to describe it by giving it a name and making a memorial at the place where God met us.

Like Abraham when God provided the ram in the bush in place of Issac having to be the sacrifice.
Abraham trusted God on that journey to go sacrifice Issac, just as God instructed him.

After the testing of Abraham’s heart, God was pleased with Abraham’s faithfulness. The ram was found in the bush and Abraham used it, in the place of Issac. 
Abraham called that place “Jehovah Jireh” which means “God Will Provide”.

God has called each of us “to come to the altar and place our sacrifice” upon it.  Ok, let’s examine ourselves:

1) What did you do when God asked you to “come and sacrifice?”

2) Did your attitude change?

3) Did you place your sacrifice on the altar?

4) Did your sacrifice please God?

5) What name would you give God after that experience?

    Through many years of my younger life I have been in so many situations where I could have n should have been hurt or even possibly died due to that particular situation but for some reason I made it through without a scratch n I have to believe it was Jesus who guarded over me every time n for that I have to name Him my PROTECTOR!

      Amen!
      Thank you for sharing.
      I love when God and Moses had the dialog about facing Pharoah and ask that he let God’s people go.
      Moses asked the Lord, “who shall I tell them (the Israelites) has sent me?
      Trip on God’s response.
      Tell them that “I AM” has sent you.
      Wow … the Israelites knew exactly who I AM is.
      That is just like us today. When you say “my shield and my protector”, we know who exactly you are talking about!
      “I AM” is our Jehovah. The great I AM, who is all you need Him to be.
      Thanks 4 sharing…
      Blessings to you …

    To me, God has been a “Husband” and a “Father” to my children. Therefore, I will call Him “Beloved Husband”.
    He has taken away my shame, and given me a new heart.
    “I will go where He goes. I will stay where He stays and His people will be my people.

Matthew 6:33 “Seek the Kingdom of God above all else,  and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need” 1. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else,  (this reminds us to daily keep our eyes and mind on heavenly things.  We live on earth and with all its distractions, chaos and confusion. But these things must not change our perspective, (which is God first)… 2. and live righteously,  (we are children of God, therefore we are to live like Jesus.  a. Show kindness … b. Show patience … c. Show good to others d. Show love! The world so desperately needs to see what love looks like… e. Above all else, let’s show forgiveness … We should be doing this daily with strangers, neighbors & coworkers …. As well as in our homes! 3. And then God … will give you everything you need” Let’s put on Jesus!

     Proverbs 21:22 “Whoever pursues righteous and unfailing love will find life, righteousness and honor” Father, Elohim,  “Thank you” 4 putting your wonderful creation together for all to enjoy and be rich by it all. Today in LA it has been raining, which is one thing we do not get much of .. but I “thank you” for it. It’s a time of slowing down.  It’s a time to sit and be still in the comfort of a warm home with family. I “thank you” Lord for the newness that comes with rain. It washes our soul and our mind.  We can take time to be still and reflect on where I AM .. where am I going .. and how to get there. The rain brings us to a stop and a moment to care about family, to look at ourselves and a chance for change, if needed. The rain heals the soul and lights it up with hope and freshness.  It’s a bath from head to toe that relaxes my spirit with the feeling of cleansing within me. Take time to enjoy this amazing season!  job leon https://youtu.be/Zua8MJxnAwE?si=Qq1O56hCjfVDlrjksi

My dear best friend went home yesterday. And today he is running about with his brothers; Lil Man, Rufus and his sister Peggy Sue. Such sweet sorrow & comfort knowing that he’s himself again, feeling healthy and free.  He is 13 doggie years on earth but Heaven does not have days or years. There is only eternity!     One can sense when there is something wrong with our best friend .. they are happy to see you and being around the family, but there is something about their eyes, that reflects what they are feeling  .                             Is sickness and death for all of creation? Let’s review all that God created for us.  Plants and trees can wither and die.  Animals, birds, fishes and all creeping things also live to die.  The stars, the waters and the land, the heavens, the seasons, the day & the night, the moon and the sun they are still in place, right?  And these too will pass.                                                                               Scripture tel
