As we look at the last name of God in this series we come to Jehovah-Mekoddishkem, the Lord who sets you apart, sanctifies, makes holy. This is first used in Exodus 31:13; Speak also to the children of Israel, saying: ‘Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and youContinue reading “Set Apart”

When God Says…
Have you heard God tell you to do something, yet you are wondering if it really is from God, so you ask Him to prove to you that what you heard was Him? I know I have. What I love about the Bible and the people in it, is they are just like you andContinue reading “When God Says…”
Final Week of the Names of God
As we close up the study of the Names of God, these are not the least of names and the list that we have looked at is not all the names. In Exodus 15:26, we first see the name Jehovah-Rapha used. It means Lord, your healer. God is the Great Physician, not only does he healContinue reading “Final Week of the Names of God”
The Lord Is There
Have you ever gone some place and you just felt the presence of the Lord there? In Ezekiel chapter 48, we see the boundaries of Israel listed. In the center of Israel lies the city of Jerusalem.

OK, that may be a little far fetched but when you look at what Job 33:4 says, isn’t that what is going on in the world? The Spirit of God hasContinue reading “What We Have Forgotten”
In The Shadow Of…
I think this picture is a great representation of Psalms 91:1-2; He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” As we look at the picture we mainly see theContinue reading “In The Shadow Of…”

Casting Stones
Stick and stones…. Have you ever said something that got people really upset? Maybe, you wrote something and you got feedback that was really negative? In Jr. High, I went to a private school. In English one day, we were given an assignment where we could write on Proverbs 16:18, “Pride goes before destruction and haughtiness beforeContinue reading “Casting Stones”
