Live The Abundant Life

• Mar. 20, 2006 - Further Study on the Names of God

In response to Grandmommy's comment I thought I'd direct you to some great resources on God's name.
As I quoted from, my devotional is called Praying the Names of God, A Daily Guide By Ann Spangler - it's not as indepth as I would like to go but it is a very good beginning.
Kay Arthur has an older, but popular book out on this subject (I can't vouch for it as I haven't read it) called Lord, I want to Know You.
Another book I haven't read is I AM: Inheriting the Fullness of God's Names by John Paul Jackson (he also has a worship CD out called The 365 Names of God.
Actually, the Ann Spangler book has a great Bibliography at the back of the book on this subject. I highly recommend looking through some of those titles - at least I plan to try to get my hands on some of them.
All of these are "Christian" sources. But if you look at this website: Hebrew for Christians - Names of G-d you'll find a Jewish perspective on God's names.
I hope these resources bless you as you get started!

I am sending out a "mass apology" to everyone I told about "The Clean Heart, Clean Home Challenge". I have received some comments in regard to leaving the button on people's blogs and I feel the best way to make sure there aren't others who are offended, is to apologize to those I sent the notice to.

I feel just horrible that some thought I was "advertising" in some way when my intention was to share with other homeschoolers what I was offering as encouragement and a way for us to join together.

If you are one who was upset by my post, please feel free to delete it and email me or leave a comment on my page and I will personally apologize. To those who have joined in The Challenge, I'm so looking forward to what the Lord has in store for us and hope we will all be able to bless our families and grow in the Lord through it! Thank you most importantly for seeing my heart. I never meant to disregard anyone's post when I left the comment about the Challenge, and want you all to know that anything you ever have to say to me, whether on topic or not, is more than welcome on my blog. I will also be making a new category on my blog that will list those of you who don't mind getting urgent prayer requests or information from time to time. I hope this way I will be able to avoid upsetting anyone similarly in the future.

Thanks for allowing me to comment on your blog. I hope you will accept my apology (and not be upset that I'm "off topic" from your post, but I have many people to get to still tonight).

In Him,
Amy Verlennich

I enjoyed reading your blog. I love to study the names of God. Marilyn Hickey also has an excellent book on the subject.

I will look at the sites you provided for the names of God, with a Hebrew perspective. I love learning new things and deeper meanings for things I thought I knew.

God bless you,
