Names of God: El Shaddai
| MEANING:God Almighty or “God All-Sufficient” God is seen as strong and unchanging. | VERSE:“I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.” —Genesis 17:1 NKJV |
FACT:El Shaddai appears 48 times in the Old Testament. | PRAYER:God, I want to faithfully follow You, believing You are enough for me. |
There are many names given to God in the Bible, and each one helps to illustrate a facet of God’s character. These names are placed in Scripture that we might know and understand more about Him.
We encourage you to know more about God’s character through the study of some of His names!

Please tell me if we should call God 'Yahweh'. I noticed the New Jerusalem Bible (The Catholic Bible ) used the word Yahweh every time our Bible addressed Him as 'LORD'. What is the difference between the Old Testament 'LORD' and New Testament 'Lord'? Why do they spell the name differently?

I looked all over and can't find it. I too would like a calendar with God's name.
Thanks,

Hi! Cathe,
My daughter, living in California and I, living in Maine, would love to do a Bible Study on the names of God. Since you are out of the calendars, can you recommend a study we could use.
Thank you and God bless you and Greg and your ministry to the world (it's really smaller than we think).
Selah

My birthday is 2/2 and my Heavenly Father has time and time again proven He is enough for me. Through the lean years and in-between years, He has been my constant and my help in times of trouble. His hand has been upon my life for many years now and today my heart still rejoices that He chose me to be part of His family. I am humbled, for I am still just a sinner saved by His grace and mercy. El Shaddai, El Shaddai, I do love you soooo...
