The list is quite extensive

"The Name of the Lord is a strong tower;
the righteous runs into it and is safe." Proverbs .18:10


Our names are precious to us....they reveal who we are.
They are a personal connection, a unique part of us.
Names in Biblical times were very important, they revealed a person's character.
As we read through Scripture we can see the importance of names,
therefore, I think it should be a priority in our lives to learn the Names of God.
He has been given many Names and each reveals Him in a different way.
God's Names represent His attributes, His nature.
I think it is important that we know God by His many Names.
I hope you are encouraged and uplifted as you read these Names of God.
I would urge you to take time to worship Him daily
by calling upon Him using His various Names...
to do so will be an awesome experience in knowing God.
