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

Matthew 9:14-17

Jesus questioned about fasting14Some of John's disciples came to Jesus and asked Him: "Why is it that we fast like the Pharisees do, but Your disciples don't fast?"15Jesus replied: "How can you expect the bridegroom's guests to mourn while he is with them? When the bridegroom is taken away from them, that will be the time for them to fast.16"No one would think of sewing a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. When the garment was washed, the patch would shrink and only make the tear worse.17"Nor would men pour new wine into old, hardened wineskins. If they were to do this, the skins would burst and both the wine and the wineskins would be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new flexible wineskins and then both are preserved."
