This Easter, Pray these 12 Names of God
Celebrate Easter by meditating and praying the names of God
Easter marks the happiest moment in the life of a Christian. The day Jesus rose from the dead after he was crucified, giving us hope of eternal life with God.
Yet the biblical narrative isn’t without its ups and downs, its twists and turns. But this painstakingly complex and long journey to the cross has a powerful purpose.
It gives us glimpses into God’s heart.
Scripture reveals truths about God so that we can know him and be drawn to worship him.
- In Genesis, he is the God of promise
- In Ruth, he is the God of redemption
- In Acts, he is the God of power
- In 1 John, he is the God of love
And did you know, God has many different names? These names reflect his character and help us understand him better.
This Easter, we invite you to draw closer to God by reflecting, meditating, and praying the names of God.
Use this guide to learn 12 names of God, study their meaning, then call out to God in prayer using those names. Allow your heart to be drawn in worship as you’re reminded of the God you serve.
Are you ready to experience the power of praying the names of God?
