To Know His Name



Fall Aspens New Mexico by Dee Kamp

                                                 To Know His Name               

And those who know your name will put their trust in you.”

Psalm 9:10

His Word comes as a fresh breeze blown down from heaven in surprising ways and satisfying my hunger to know God more. Tucked in my Bible is a book mark of the list of the names of God.

 As I read the Names of God today I was drawn to two of His names in particular, El Shaddai, the All Sufficient One, and Jehovah-Shalom, The LORD of Peace.

And there exactly where this special book mark was placed in no particular order the other day I discovered was pressed next to the timely and perfect Scripture describing God’s character through these names for all of us to understand to well.

All this I have spoken while still with you. But the Counselor the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” John 14:25-27.

Let us be eager in our passionate pursuit of God for more glorious visions of who He is. God desires for us to come into a personal relationship with His Son not once in a while, or in our greatest hour of need, but continually and consistently day in and day out.

  Let us embrace the Cross which shatters the stranglehold of self and watch in awe as we are drawn closer to Him lifted up to see His face, hear His voice and become an eye witness to His glory. Watch with joy as He fills our hearts with anticipation. And with wonder of how He enlarges our capacity to receive more and more of Him. To know His Name is to love Him more and more.
