The Names of God

The Names of God

Together with kindness and in understanding, let’s take this time to self reflect. I am here to inspire, encourage, and remind you that God has given us the most important weapon we have to fight the enemy, his word.

Now let’s dress our bodies like we dress our souls, EVERYDAY!

The Names of God

“And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and named him Seth. “For God,” she said, “hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, who Cain slew.” and to Seth also there was born a son, and he called his name Enosh. Then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.” Genesis 4: 25-26 NKJV

Let’s start by looking at the word call. The dictionary defines it a cry made as a summons or to attract someones attention. The practice of calling the Lord began around the third generation of mankind. When Adam and Eve’s son Seth had a child of his own it was then that man began to call on the name of the Lord.

It was then, man saw their vulnerability. Simply put we need God. Through out the old testament and New Testament we see man calling upon God for help, guidance, direction, and safety. We are still calling upon the name of the Lord. There are songs, movies, and books that are inspired by his name.
