Revealed by Name

You wrote Your glorious name

Across the heavens and it read

Elohim – The Creator

You pronounced Your holy name

To Your people and it was

Yahweh – Lord of relationship

You posted Your powerful name

At life’s valleys and dead-ends and it was

El Shaddai – All sufficient God.

You spoke Your name

Into fears and conflicts and it was

Jehovah Shalom – The Lord Our Peace

You whispered Your compassionate name

Into sorrow and brokenness and it was

Jehovah Jireh – The Lord Provides

You signed Your most beautiful name

In blood upon our hearts and it was

Jesus – Jehovah is Salvation.
