Gods Nature Expressed Through His Names

In our modern day names are assigned to a newborn baby at random-either due to the popularity of a name, or to honour someone as a namesake-during Bible times the name given to a child stood for much and had a prominence about it that the names of individuals no longer carry. In this context, it is vitally important that as we study the Word of God and the meanings of His Names. Some people (even Born-Again Believers) only have a very surface-level/superficial concept of who God is. To some He is just Where/Who you go to when you need something and for others He is just a vague peace in a troubled world. But in reality He is so much more! Let me say this to you: If you are a Born-Again Believer, everything that defines each one of us is influenced by our perception of God. Let me hasten to say that outside of the Word of God and prayer we cannot effectively cooperate with the Nature of God and outside of this it is impossible to know the real Lord and God as He desires to be known. We must always be seeking to interact with God at a higher level. Fully seeking to know Him more intimately and in His entirety in order to become more like Him! Thereby giving us the ability to better express His Nature and represent His Kingdom much more effectively in the earth! This is done by the study of His Names. How awesome it would be when we encounter God’s Nature through the varied expressions of His Names. His Names give us reference and guidance as to how He works towards and in us as His people – and by extension to society! As a matter of fact it adds a whole new meaning to how you draw near to Him; and by this you can now begin to know His Ways because you have come into relationship with His Nature!
