The Names Of God: Jehovah Nissi

Northshore Christian Church

Speaker: Josh Rogers, Worship Arts Pastor Today marks the conclusion of the "Names of God" series, and we're reflecting on how these names have impacted our faith over the past ten weeks. The series has deepened our understanding of God’s character, helping us connect more personally with His attributes such as Jehovah Jireh (our provider), Jehovah Rohi (our shepherd), and Jehovah Shalom (our peace). Many have found that these names have shaped their prayer life and perspective, especially during challenging seasons. One worship team member shared how, during a season of pruning, they have found comfort in God's names like El Shaddai (God Almighty) and Jehovah Shalom, trusting in His goodness despite difficult circumstances. This series has encouraged us to grow and be transformed by the truth of who God is. As we reflect on what we've learned, we remember that God's revealed names are not separate roles He plays, but facets of His unchanging nature. These names, from Yahweh (I Am) to Jehovah, show us that God is always fully who He is, even if different aspects of Him are revealed in different seasons. This brings us to the final name of the series, Jehovah Nissi—"The Lord is my Banner." Today, we’ll explore this name through the story in Exodus 17, where God’s provision and protection are displayed.
