Did you know that there are hundreds of names for God in the Bible? Think of all the names you are called by: Honey, Sweetie, your given name, Mommy, etc. They serve as a way to describe your job, your roll, your character and to identify who you are.
In Scripture, the meaning of a person’s name held great significance. A person’s name often described something that would happen to them or the nation in the future. Today, we often choose names because of family heritage or maybe because we like the sound of it.
The names of God in Scripture are especially significant and are not meant to be looked over. He is so immense, complex, and mysterious that one name cannot contain Him. In His grace, God has given us different names in Scripture that define Him. These names give us little glimpses of who He is.
