Greetings -
Scriptures from King James Bible
Before proceeding further, attribution is to Gina for a post that the Lord led me to on her blog this morning. She has posted names for GOD. As I was doing this post, the Lord reminded that blog brother MTJ had recently posted a piece with names for GOD contained in it. A further reminder came that I commented on MTJ's topic and added a list of some names for GOD in comments there. Note: As I finished up this posting, a reminder came that previously, on this blog, was posted the topic, "NAMES FOR GOD," on August 12, 2010. The list below has more GOD names than that previous listing.
Ref: MTJ's blog: If you are so inclined, the GOD name listing is the first comment entered under MTJ's topic, "WHO IS GOD?" Note: MTJ's piece is powerful. It is penetrative, and got me high.
I commented on Gina's blog this a.m. about appreciation that she had posted names for GOD. It was mentioned to her that I had some names that were not included in her posting, and that I considered sharing them on her blog but the listing is lengthy...so she was informed that the names from the listing would be posted on this blog. I invited Gina here to read some of the names for GOD that were not on her post.
It is interesting that GOD has His names on our minds...hmmm

I like GOD OF ALL COMFORT. One we use here in DR is Jehova de los Ejércitos, or El Todo Poderoso.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day :D
Hi Mari -
ReplyDeleteThank you...
Yes, "GOD OF ALL COMFORT" is immensely comforting. Wow! Jehova de los Ejercitos, or El Todo Poderoso. There is such rhythm in those names in Spanish - though I cannot properly pronounce them. Maybe, the Lord will give me miraculous Spanish speaking abilities one day or maybe I will take lessons - I like the first idea better (laughs).
(smiles).
Hello Sandra,
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite names for God was part of my one-year Bible reading today: "You are the great and powerful God, the LORD OF HEAVEN'S ARMIES." (Jeremiah 29:18b) I LOVE that name because it gives me such courage. Yes, I follow the General, the One who commands the mighty armies of Heaven! Onward Christian soldiers!!
To answer the questions you asked on my blog:
1) The best definition of a "meme" that I could find was at this web address: www.chrisg.com/what-is-a-blog-meme/
If you go to MTJ's blog - on his sidebar he has a "meme" that he has participated in before called "Sweet P's" (He also explained it in his post dated August 13, 2010) - others I have found include "Word-Filled Wednesday" and "Thankful Thursday" - there are many. Basically, as I understand them, they are recurring themes that one posts on a regular basis, and then others are able to link up and post along the same theme. I don't completely understand how they work - that may be why I haven't yet participated in one yet!!!
2) My posts about Marty are on the following dates:
Monday, August 23, 2010
Tuesday, August 24, 2010
Wednesday, August 25, 2010

Glad you like his picture - I really love that dog!!
Just as an additional thought - a favorite name for God is the one He gave Himself, YHWH (Yahweh) - simply "I AM!"
GOD BLESS!!
Hi Sharon -
ReplyDeleteI love that, "LORD OF HEAVEN'S ARMIES." Thank you for sharing that favorite GOD name of yours.
Also, thank you for additional information. I appreciate it.
there have been several, including my former boss, Dick Eastman, who have written entire books on the names of God - good stuff!
ReplyDeleteSandra - I had a "senior moment." The Scripture reference should read: Jeremiah 32:18b!!
ReplyDeleteYIKES!!
