WHAT IS YOUR GOD'S NAME?

“The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee... Send thee help... strengthen thee... Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.”
 
I appeared unto...Jacob, by [the name of] God Almighty.”

God is known by many names in the scriptures by which He reveals himself to His people. But the one title with which every saint must be familiar if he or she expects to be an overcomer, is “God Almighty.”  

I emphasize, it is imperative!  

Jacob, along with Abraham, Isaac and a host of others, could never have achieved, personally or publically, the things they accomplished without the help of the “Almighty”.

Mini-professors who serve a miniature god need not think they will attain unto anything in life larger than their deity. A book title I saw once described this sort: Their God is Too Small. This is why they’re forever excusing his impotence.

Like Israel who worshiped Baal, the one who couldn’t answer his own prophets when they needed him most, even so, today’s play actors bow at the altar of a god who also cannot aid them in times of distress and need.

It is time again, in this apostate generation, as Elisha of old to cry out, “Where is the God of Elijah? And then upon seeing Him work, ask for a “Double portion.”

Prayer:  ALMIGHTY GOD, I beseech thee to once again move among your people. In thy mercy, grant it Lord.” AMEN and AMEN!
