Names of God: Adonai + Jehovah

Pastor Tony Liuzzo (Lead Pastor) - Genesis 1:1-3 & 26; 2:7; 3:8-9; 15:1-2; 17:1-5 & 16; 18:12; Matthew 20:8; Exodus 3:2-5 & 10-15; 6:2-6; Isaiah 9:6-7

 

The names of God that we have studied so far speak and explain the greatness of God. The next name of God describes our reaction to His greatness. It is more than acknowledging that we serve a great God, it is responding with submission to His authority and power. 

We will go back to Genesis to discover the significance to the name, Adonai!

 

Bible study description:

Knowing someone's name is the very start of getting to know someone. It is what we use to call out to someone to get their attention. It is how we identify someone. 

Our God has many names. Each name of God reveals to us His character, His nature, and His attributes. Knowing His names brings us into a deeper relationship with Him because it allows us to know Him on a deeper level.

When we know His names, we can then call out to Him using His names. There is a reason that our God has so many names...there is power in the name of our God! Do you know our God by His names?
