The Power of His Name 4 – Jehovah El-Shaddai

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

God is referred to as El-Shaddai in the Bible in the following Scriptures.

Genesis Chapter 17 verse 1 where He made a call to Abram to holiness and righteous living.

See also Genesis 28 verse 3 where Isaac blessed Jacob in the name of God Almighty praying that God Almighty would make Jacob fruitful and multiply.

Genesis Chapter 35 verses 11 to 12 where He instructed Jacob to be fruitful and multiply.

Psalm 91 verses 1 to 8 talks about the protection, life security which a child of God who dwells under the shadow of the Almighty enjoys.

Jacob prayed for his sons that God Almighty would give them favor before the governor of Egypt, who unknown to him then was his supposedly dead son Joseph. Please read Genesis Chapter 43 verse 14.

Jacob really knew and understood God as the Almighty. As he talked about his life sojourns with Joseph, Jacob was mindful of the fact that God Almighty appeared to him at Luz and blessed him. Beloved, what is your knowledge and understanding of God as the Almighty? Can you say that you know Him as the Almighty God with Whom nothing is impossible and Who is in perfect control of the entire universe?

He is the Creator of the heavens and the earth as well as anything; animate and inanimate in the entire Universe. Please read Genesis Chapters 1; 2 verses 1 to 19.

He speaks and it is done. Please read Hebrews Chapter 11 verse 3, Romans Chapter 4 verse 17, Isaiah Chapter 55 verses 8 to 11, Numbers Chapter 23 verse 19, Ezekiel Chapter 37 verses 1 to 14.

All power wherever it is situated belongs to God. Please read Psalms 62 verse 11; 68 verses 28 to 35, Job Chapters 9 verse 4; 37 verse 23, 42 verses 1 to 2, and Romans Chapter 4 verses 17 to 25. God also has the power to create out of nothing with His words. Please read Genesis Chapter 1.

He has no limits and is not limited by anyone or anything. Please read Job Chapters 11 verses 7 to 9; 38 verses 1 to 12, Jeremiah Chapter 32 verses 27, 17 to 20, Isaiah Chapter 14 verse 27, Luke Chapters 1 verse 37;18 verse 27, Mark Chapter 10 verse 27, Matthew Chapter 19 verse 28, Numbers Chapter 11 verse 23, and Genesis Chapter 18 verse 14.
