Going deeper...to go further

Daily Bible reading strengthens our relationship with God, nourishes our spirits and equips us to live a fruitful, effective life for Him.

This month we're looking at Scriptures about the names of God to go alongside our Sunday message series. We’ll also be finishing off Deuteronomy and reading Joshua. As we read the Word it’s important that we apply what we read and pray it out over our lives. One of the way you can do this is by using the acronym SOAP. To find out more about SOAP watch this video.

Below you’ll see what we’re reading today. To go forward or back a day in our reading plan use the 'Next' and 'Previous' buttons.

The Names of God

  • In scripture the Name denotes the person and says something of his character.
  • The Names of God describe different aspects of His character.
  • He is the Lord, the ultimate authority.
  • His Name is holy; He is perfect in every respect.
  • His Son is named Jesus – Saviour. Christ the Anointed One.
  • God always acts for the honour of His Name.
  • Believers have the privilege of praying in the Name of Jesus; not only using His Name but praying with authority, faith and expectation because they pray according to His Word.
  • Believers are to say and do everything in Jesus’ Name. Saying what He would say, doing what He would do, all for the glory of God; speaking, praying and acting with His authority.

Names of God

Isaiah 51:12-14

12“I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you that you fear mere mortals, human beings who are but grass,13that you forget the Lord your Maker, who stretches out the heavens and who lays the foundations of the earth,that you live in constant terror every day because of the wrath of the oppressor, who is bent on destruction?For where is the wrath of the oppressor?14The cowering prisoners will soon be set free;they will not die in their dungeon, nor will they lack bread.

Judges 10

1After the time of Abimelech a man of Issachar, Tola son of Puah, the son of Dodo, rose to save Israel. He lived in Shamir, in the hill country of Ephraim.2He led Israel twenty-three years; then he died, and was buried in Shamir.3He was followed by Jair of Gilead, who led Israel twenty-two years.4He had thirty sons, who rode thirty donkeys. They controlled thirty towns in Gilead, which to this day are called Havvoth Jair.5When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon.6Again the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the LORD. They served the Baals and the Ashtoreths, and the gods of Aram, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the Ammonites and the gods of the Philistines. And because the Israelites forsook the LORD and no longer served him,7he became angry with them. He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and the Ammonites,8who that year shattered and crushed them. For eighteen years they oppressed all the Israelites on the east side of the Jordan in Gilead, the land of the Amorites.9The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin and the house of Ephraim; and Israel was in great distress.10Then the Israelites cried out to the LORD, "We have sinned against you, forsaking our God and serving the Baals."11The LORD replied, "When the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines,12the Sidonians, the Amalekites and the Maonites oppressed you and you cried to me for help, did I not save you from their hands?13But you have forsaken me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you.14Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you when you are in trouble!"15But the Israelites said to the LORD, "We have sinned. Do with us whatever you think best, but please rescue us now."16Then they got rid of the foreign gods among them and served the LORD. And he could bear Israel's misery no longer.17When the Ammonites were called to arms and camped in Gilead, the Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.18The leaders of the people of Gilead said to each other, "Whoever will launch the attack against the Ammonites will be the head of all those living in Gilead."
