My Father's Names

What’s In A Name? You can tell a lot about a man by what others call him: father, husband, brother, leader. In the same way, you can learn much about God by understanding what He was called in the Old Testament El Shaddai, Elohim, Adonai, El Gibbor, and Jehovak Melek are just a few of the over 80 names that people in the Old Testament used to call upon God in different situations. In times of need or times of praise, they used specific names for God that focused on a certain characteristic of His, or on a promise that He made. Today, as we learn God’s names and what they mean, we can begin to know Him more intimately. We discover what He wants for us, how He provides for our needs and learn new, deeper ways to approach Him in prayer. In My Father’s Names you’ll find out what the Old Testament names of God mean and how they can bring you closer to your Heavenly Father.
