“In fact, sometimes God will allow you to experience larger problems in life because He wants to unveil a larger portion of Himself to you. People who want to give up on God simply because life’s scenarios don’t make sense could very well be walking away from a new manifestation of God and His name in their lives.”

“Because of this craftiness, Satan sought to deceive Eve by subtly changing God’s name. When he spoke to Eve, we read, “And he said to the woman, ‘Indeed, has God said, “You shall not eat from any tree of the garden”?’ ” (Genesis 3:1). In removing the name Lord (Jehovah) from before God, Satan pulled a sales trick on Eve. He sought to deceive her by hiding God’s relational nature and thus the relational impact of the deed he was trying to get her to commit. With the name Lord (Jehovah) still in the question, Satan would be reminding Eve through his own words about God’s position as absolute master over both Adam and Eve. Yet he didn’t use Jehovah, and even when Eve replied, she neglected to call God by the name He had used to make Himself known.”

“If Elohim is God’s creative and powerful name, Jehovah is God’s personal name. It’s the self-revealing name God gave when Moses asked, “What is [Your] name?” When we study the name Elohim, we study the God who is the Creator, and we can talk about His power, presence, and prowess. When we talk about Jehovah, we’re talking about His person, His character.”

“God will often allow us to be in a situation with no possible solution. This is so we can discover that He is our solution. He lets us hit rock bottom in order for us to learn that He is the Rock at the bottom. He’ll put us between a rock and hard place—a situation that seems confusing, incongruent, and chaotic. And He will often do this when He’s getting ready to reveal something new about Himself to us,”
Tony Evans, The Power of God's Names
“To know God’s names is to experience His nature, and that level of intimacy is reserved for those who humbly depend on Him. God will not share His glory with another. We must humble ourselves if we really want to know Him. We must realize our insignificance before we can recognize the significance that comes only through Him. We are to hallow His name and His name alone. You can’t know His names until you forget your own.”
Tony Evans, The Power of God's Names
“He certainly didn’t need Abram and Sarai to help Him give them a child. After all, His name is El Shaddai—He is both the Creator and sustainer of life. And He loves to manifest Himself in the context of the impossible.”
