Shakespeare once asked, Whats in a name?
When it comes to our wonderful God, the answer is, Everything!
Many strange ideas are floating around our world today as to who or what God is. Some have been passed down from generation to generation, even within the church.
People often speak of my God or your God. My God would never allow pain and suffering. Your God is archaic. My God is ... and so it goes.
What is your understanding of who God is and how He works? Is it a biblical perspective, or have you been molding your understanding of God to fit your desires and expectations? If your perspective is not biblical, then its time to look at who God says He is and how God says He works.
Every name of God revealed in the Bible shows us something about His character and His ways. As the multiple facets of a cut diamond combine to reflect its brilliance, the names and attributes of God combine to reveal the transcendence of His nature and the glory of His ways.
With each new revelation, its as if God whispers to us, Come closer, My child. I have something new I want to tell you about Me. The more we learn, the easier it is to trust Him and rely on Him.
In Reflections on the Names of God , we will explore sixty names and attributes of God in three ways. In the first devotion for each name or attribute, we will look up to see how and why God describes Himself the way He does.
Even then, it is possible to have an intellectual understanding of who God is without changing who we are in relation to Him. The apostle Paul exhorts us to be imitators of God (Eph. 5:1). In the second devotion, we will look in as we focus on how the particular name or characteristic applies to our lives, and how it changes or strengthens our relationship with God.
Finally, in the third devotion focused on the same name or attribute, we will look out as we apply what we are learning about God and ourselves to our relationships with others.
Use these reflections to learn who God is according to how He revealed Himself in His Word. As you do, it is my prayer your relationship with Him will deepen more intimately than you ever imagined.
Three in One
John 10:2239
From the first I have not spoken in secret,
From the time it took place, I was there.
And now the Lord G O D has sent Me, and His Spirit.
Isaiah 48:16
P eople have been preoccupied with the number three throughout world history. We divide time into past, present, and future. We categorize matter by animal, mineral, or vegetable. Writers, speakers, and mathematicians are familiar with the rule of three, which holds that people more easily remember lists of three things.
Perhaps we are drawn to the number three because it helps us understand the wonder of our awesome God. Although the word trinity is not found in the Bible, it describes the truth found in the pages of Scripture. God is three in one. Three persons, one in essence. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in perfect and equal union.
Isaiah prophesied that God would send His Messiah and His Spirit, and Jesus confirmed His deity when He said, I and the Father are one (John 10:30). His listeners did not understand the nature of the Triune God then, and we have difficulty understanding Him today. Yet our lack of understanding does not negate our privilege of belonging to God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Father, thank You for revealing Your triune nature by sending Your Son and Your Spirit.
How will I worship God in His triune nature today: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?
