Who God Is

Most people know that God is omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing), and omnipresent (everywhere present at once). While this is a great place to start from, we need to come to a place where we know that God isn’t only HUGE, but is also very personal and involved in each of our individual lives. Who is God to each of us individually?

Jehovah-Tsidkenu: GOD IS our righteousness
…Now this is His name by which He will be called: THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS ~Jeremiah 23:6
For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. ~II Corinthians 5:21
Jehovah-M’Kaddesh: GOD IS our sanctifier
“…Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the LORD who sanctifies you…” ~Exodus 31:13
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless… ~I Thessalonians 5:23
Jehovah-Shalom: GOD IS our peace
So Gideon built an altar there to the LORD, and called it The-LORD-Is-Peace… ~Judges 6:24
But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For He Himself is our peace… ~Ephesians 2:13-14

“…I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you.” ~Exodus 15:26
…”He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses.” ~Matthew 8:17
Jehovah-Jireh: GOD IS our provider
And Abraham called the name of the place, The-LORD-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the LORD it shall be provided.” ~Genesis 22:14
And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. ~Philippians 4:19
Jehovah-Nissi: GOD IS our banner/victory
And Moses built an altar and called its name, The-LORD-Is-My-Banner. ~Exodus 17:15
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb… ~Revelation 12:11
Jehovah-Rohi: GOD IS our shepherd
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. ~Psalm 23:1
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.” ~John 10:11
