As I said last time, these are my notes from Worshiping God by Name. This is the second part of a two part message, and was preached by Dr. Jeremiah from Turning Point.
None of us really know God as much as we should. Therefore, we do not love Him as we should. Oh yes, we love God...a lot; but we could show Him so much more love if we would only take the time to know Him. We have the chance to know a little more about Him when we look at the names that the people of the Old Testament gave Him. Last time, we went through the first four names; today we will learn the last four, along with the meanings. So let's get stated.
1. Jehovah - M'kaddesh ~ from Lev 20:7,8
a. meaning The-Lord-Who Sanctifies
2. Jehovah - Shalom ~ from Judges 8:24
a. meaning The Lord-Who-is-Peace
3. Jehovah - Tsidkenu ~ from Jer 23:5,6
a. meaning The-Lord-Our- Righteousness
4. Jehovah - Shammah ~ from Eze 48:35
a. meaning The -Lord-Who-is-Always-There
Jehovah - Shammah is, perhaps, my favorite, as it reminds me how much God loves me. He is there to help us through trials and to share triumphs. He loves us because we are His children, and he accepts us and will forgive us anything. He is always there!
I hope that you have enjoyed this study as much as I. Next time, we will begin a study on the book of James. Until then, have a blessed day, and remember that God loves you!
