In the vast, beautiful tapestry of the Bible, the names of God are like radiant threads, each one weaving its unique brilliance into His overall grand design for all humanity.

Each name illuminates a specific facet of His character and beckons us into a deeper understanding of who He truly is.

The journey through these 16 names of God, as presented in the book "16 Names of God: A Strong Tower to Run to," is a pilgrimage that unveils the profound beauty of our Creator.

​Join me as we explore why studying these names in biblical order is not just a choice but a revelation of divine significance.

​God knows us by our name (Isaiah 43:1). Shouldn’t we also know Him by His?
16 Names of God ad
Grab your copy here exclusively at Amazon [Hardcover | Paperback | Kindle]
  1. Elohim—Creator God: Our expedition commences with Elohim, the Creator God who breathed life into existence. In Genesis 1, we encounter the foundational truth that God is the architect of all we see and experience. This first name invites us to reflect on His sovereignty, the grandeur of His creation, and our role within it.

  2. Yahweh—LORD Jehovah: From the Creator, we transition to Yahweh, the LORD Jehovah. This name signifies a personal relationship, moving beyond our role as created beings. God desires to be our LORD Jehovah throughout this life and into eternity. The study of this name underscores the intimate connection God seeks with each of us.

  3. El Elyon—Most High God: Transitioning further, we encounter El Elyon, the Most High God. His righteousness and holiness set Him apart. This sacred name emphasizes We see God here in His role as our Redeemer, reminding us because there is none like Him, and none can compare to the Most High God.

  4. Adonai—Lord Master: Adonai, our Lord Master, possesses Heaven and earth. As we delve into this name, we find refuge and deliverance, as well as a call to submit unconditionally to His lordship. Trusting Adonai is a foundation for our faith.

  5. El Shaddai—Lord God Almighty: El Shaddai, our Lord God Almighty, sustains us completely. His sufficiency fills our lives, and we can rest assured that He is enough for all our needs.

  6. El Olam—The Eternal God: Our journey then leads to El Olam, the Eternal God. His unchanging nature provides an anchor for our faith. Knowing that He remains the same throughout time brings us immeasurable comfort.

  7. Jehovah Jireh—The Lord Will Provide: Jehovah Jireh, the Lord Who provides, demonstrates His faithfulness throughout the ages. His provision, both in the past and the present, assures us that He cares for us, meets our daily needs, and will be there for us in the future as well.

  8. Jehovah Rapha—The Lord That Heals: Transitioning to Jehovah Rapha, the Lord Who heals, we witness His boundless compassion as our Healer. We recognize Him as our Great Physician, healing our bodies and souls.

  9. Jehovah Nissi—The Lord My Banner: Jehovah Nissi, the Lord our Banner, is a protector, defender, and champion. His banner over us is love, and He stands beside us in every battle.

  10. Qanna—Jealous God: Qanna, the God Who is jealous for us, desires an intimate relationship with His beloved. Just as He sought this with the children of Israel, He seeks it with us today, being zealous for our hearts.

  11. Jehovah Mekoddishkem—The Lord Who Sanctifies: As we progress to Jehovah Mekoddishkem, the Lord Who sanctifies, we understand that our relationship with God is an ongoing process. Sanctification requires effort and self-denial, and He assists us on this journey.

  12. Jehovah Shalom—The Lord Is Peace: Jehovah Shalom, the Lord our Peace, provides solace and peace beyond human understanding. His peace flows through His Word, and fills the void in our souls.

  13. Jehovah Sabaoth—The Lord of Hosts: Jehovah Sabaoth, the Lord of Hosts, emphasizes God's power and authority to grant us the reconciliation we yearn for. Our souls were created to worship and have an intimate relationship with the Lord of Hosts.

  14. Jehovah Raah—The Lord My Shepherd: Our journey leads to Jehovah Raah, the Lord our Shepherd. The One with universal power serves as our loving Shepherd, guiding and protecting us throughout life's journey.

  15. Jehovah Tsidkenu—The Lord Our Righteousness: Jehovah Tsidkenu, the Lord our Righteousness, leads us into His righteousness. This Good Shepherd invites us to partake in His righteousness as we journey closer to and become more like Him.

  16. Jehovah Shammah—The Lord Is There: In our final destination, Jehovah Shammah, the Lord is There. God's unchanging presence never leaves us. He awakens the stagnant waters of our souls and assures us that He is always there.
The journey through these 16 names of God is a transformative pilgrimage. Each name reveals another layer of God's character and His desire for an intimate relationship with us. This journey deepens our love for God and overflows into all areas of our lives. As Proverbs 18:10 declares, "The name of the Lord is a Strong Tower; the righteous run into it and are safe." Run into the arms of these 16 names, and experience the safety and richness of God's character and love.

Join us here on Tuesdays, beginning October 10, 2023, for 16 weeks as we do a deep-dive into each of these 16, transformative, names of God. Find out why His names are so precious. 
From Creator God (Elohim) in Genesis, to The Lord Is There (Jehovah Shammah) in Ezekiel, we'll explore the meaning and significance behind each of these names as we discover safety in the Strong Tower.
Which of these 16 names of God are you claiming as your Strong Tower today?
