The boys and I are reading this book for our class Bible time, called "The Names of God", by Marilyn Hickey. The first name we learned about is Elohim, found first in Genesis...meaning the God of might and power. It took might to create the heavens and the earth!!!
Today, we read about the name Jehovah and how it means the Lord who reveals. We read how God raised up Moses to deliver the children of Israel and how God revealed Himself as "I AM" to Moses from the burning bush. God told Moses to go back to Egypt, because he was ready to be the deliverer that He had called him to be. God raised up Moses to win!
We discovered that God raises up winners and we learned that when God is on your side you have nothing to fear!!!
"Now thanks be to God, which always causes us to triumph in Christ." We always WIN when we are IN CHRIST!!!
May Jehovah reveal Himself to you today!!!

What a great study! I love studying the names of God. It really helps to learn His character. May we never forget that He is the great I AM!
