Be still and Know that I am God [Psalm 46:10]

Due to some circumstances beyond my control I have not been able to publish some postings the last ten days. Today I decided to find out who God is in my life. God works in our lives everyday blessing us in many ways. [Exodus 3:14] 14God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." And he said, "Say this to the people of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.
God has names which reveal Him as meeting every single of our needs and these names are:
Jehovah-Jireh (the Lord that provides)
[
Genesis 22:13-14] 13And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14So Abraham called the name of that place, "The LORD will provide"; as it is said to this day, "On the mount of the LORD it shall be provided."

Jehovah-Rapha (the Lord that healeth)
[Exodus 15:26] 26saying, "If you will diligently listen to the voice of the LORD your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, your healer."

Jehovah-Nissi (the Lord our banner)
[Exodus 17:8-15] ....14Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write this as a memorial in a book and recite it in the ears of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven." 15And Moses built an altar and called the name of it, The LORD Is My Banner,
[Galatians 5:17] 17For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.
Jehovah-Shalom (the Lord our peace)
[Judges 6:24] 24Then Gideon built an altar there to the LORD and called it, The LORD Is Peace. To this day it still stands at Ophrah, which belongs to the Abiezrites.
[Genesis 2:1-5] 1Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done. 3So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all his work that he had done in creation.
Jehovah-Ra-ah (the Lord my shepherd)
[Psalm 23.] The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2He makes me lie down in green pastures.He leads me beside still waters. 3He restores my soul.He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil,for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
Jehovah-Tsidkenu (the Lord our righteousness)
[Jeremiah 23:6] 6In his days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell securely. And this is the name by which he will be called: 'The LORD is our righteousness.'
Jehovah-Shammah (the Lord is present)
[Ezekiel 48:35] 35The circumference of the city shall be 18,000 cubits. And the name of the city from that time on shall be, The LORD Is There." [Exodus 33:14-15] 14And he said, "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest." 15And he said to him, "If your presence will not go with me, do not bring us up from here.
Jehovah Elohim (God Our Creator)
[Genesis 1:1] 1In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth
Jehovah El Shaddai (God our Supplier)
[Genesis 17:1-2] 1When Abram was ninety-nine years old the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be blameless, 2that I may make my covenant between me and you, and may multiply you greatly."
Jehovah Adonai (Master, Lord)
[Genesis 18:3] 3and said, "O Lord, if I have found favor in your sight, do not pass by your servant.
Jehovah M'kadesh (God my Sanctifier)
[Exodus 31:13] 13"You are to speak to the people of Israel and say, 'Above all you shall keep my Sabbaths, for this is a sign between me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I, the LORD, sanctify you.
If we have needs that we need met nomatter how big and complicated they may look, always remember that God is able. [Philippians 4:19] 19And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
G0d Bless
