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.

Strong Tower

Names of God

Proverbs 18:10

10The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

Judges 12

1The men of Ephraim called out their forces, crossed over to Zaphon and said to Jephthah, "Why did you go to fight the Ammonites without calling us to go with you? We're going to burn down your house over your head."2Jephthah answered, "I and my people were engaged in a great struggle with the Ammonites, and although I called, you didn't save me out of their hands.3When I saw that you wouldn't help, I took my life in my hands and crossed over to fight the Ammonites, and the LORD gave me the victory over them. Now why have you come up today to fight me?"4Jephthah then called together the men of Gilead and fought against Ephraim. The Gileadites struck them down because the Ephraimites had said, "You Gileadites are renegades from Ephraim and Manasseh."5The Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan leading to Ephraim, and whenever a survivor of Ephraim said, "Let me cross over," the men of Gilead asked him, "Are you an Ephraimite?" If he replied, "No,"6they said, "All right, say 'Shibboleth.'" If he said, "Sibboleth," because he could not pronounce the word correctly, they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. Forty-two thousand Ephraimites were killed at that time.7Jephthah led Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in a town in Gilead.8After him, Ibzan of Bethlehem led Israel.9He had thirty sons and thirty daughters. He gave his daughters away in marriage to those outside his clan, and for his sons he brought in thirty young women as wives from outside his clan. Ibzan led Israel seven years.10Then Ibzan died, and was buried in Bethlehem.11After him, Elon the Zebulunite led Israel ten years.12Then Elon died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.13After him, Abdon son of Hillel, from Pirathon, led Israel.14He had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy donkeys. He led Israel eight years.15Then Abdon son of Hillel died, and was buried at Pirathon in Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
