TO BEAR HIS NAME
Weekly Insights into the Names of God
(Taken from the To Bear HIs Name Study by Sandra J. Mikler Davis)
We see from
II Samuel several great reminders of who really rules over all:
David became greater and greater, for the LORD of hosts was with him.
II Samuel 5:10
…that Your name may be magnified forever, by saying,
‘The LORD of hosts is God over Israel’;
and may the house of Your servant David be established before You.
II Samuel 7:26
David's prayer in
II Samuel 7:18-29 truly emphasizes his knowledge, fear, love, and respect for
JEHOVAH Sabaoth – the LORD of hosts.
David recognized his unworthiness way back when God gave him victory over Goliath
(
I Samuel 17), and he carried this honor throughout his life, in seasons of sin and victory.
David showed his trust in
JEHOVAH Sabaoth by faith, trust, and in
action!!!
