The Names and Titles of God / Names of Jesus

  • Updated on 12.1.26
  • 0

Not just titles. Revelations of who He is for every season of life.

The name of the LORD is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe – Proverbs 18:10.

At different seasons of life, the Holy Spirit may lead us to call God by a specific name.

Not because one name of God is insufficient, but because the weight of the moment may require a deeper revelation.

  • Worried → Prince of Peace
  • Feeling unseen → El Roi
