Names of God 17

“Not to us, Lord, not to us, but to Your name give glory, Because of Your mercy, because of Your truth.”     Psalm 115:1 El Tellihati – God My Praise (Psalm 109:1) Is it any wonder why David was called "a man after God's own heart" as we see how He sought to know and express all the character of God through His Names in the Psalms?

JEHOVAH UZI or URI – “GOD MY STRENGTH!" (Psalm 28:7) 
A couple of weeks back we looked at God's Name in Psalm 19:14 as Jehovah Tsori - God Our Strength (Rock) and it also means God Who Is Strength (Power). Building on this concept and character of God, David reveals the strength and power of Who God Is... Read More

Today's first Name is likely one of the most well known and beloved, at least as we know it in the English translation, as it is one of the most often quoted texts in all of Scripture. The Name is "JEHOVAH ROHI - THE LORD OUR SHEPHERD" and is found most poignantly in Psalm 23:1, "The... Read More

BTW - I want to make sure that we understand that these Names of God are... Read More
