THIRTY DAY PRAYER CHALLENGE!
PRAY THE NAMES AND ATTRIBUTES OF GOD
WHY PRAY THE NAMES OF GOD? We do this to acknowledge; thank and honor Him Who is worth of ALL praise and Glory
WHEN TO PRAY THE NAMES OF GOD: Daily. All day long!
HOW TO PRAY THE NAMES OF GOD: Consecrate a fast; move into the Secret Place in quiet and then seek His Face. Open the verse attached to the particular Name listed below. Then read it back to Him, praying and glorifying Him over EVERY WORD of that Bible passage. This way, your prayer will also remain Biblically sound and not stray off into mysticism.
Use the following list of God’s names and attributes to guide your time set apart with Him. Read the daily description about God and the accompanying passage. Worship God, focusing on Him and His qualities:
DAY:
1. God is Jehovah. The name of independent being—“I AM WHO I AM”—only belongs to Jehovah God. As we consider His greatness, we fall down in fear and awe of this One who possesses all authority. Pray Exodus 3:13-15
2. God is Jehovah-M’Kaddesh. This name means “the God who sanctifies.” A God separate from all that is evil requires that the people who follow Him be cleansed from all evil. Pray Leviticus 20:7,8
3. God is infinite. We cannot speak of measure, amount, size, or weight and at the same time be speaking of God, for He is beyond measurement. God has no beginning, no end, and no limits. Pray Romans 11:33
4. God is omnipotent. God has power. Since God is also infinite, whatever He has must be without limit; therefore, God has limitless power. Pray Jeremiah 32:17,18, 26,27
5. God is Adonai. This name means “Master” or “Lord.” God as Adonai calls all God’s people to acknowledge themselves as His servants, recognizing His right to command them as the Lord of their lives. Pray 2 Samuel 7:18-20
6. God is Elohim. This name means “Strength” or “Power.” He is transcendent, mighty, and strong. Elohim is the great name of God, signifying supreme power, sovereignty, and a covenant relationship that He is ever faithful to keep. Pray Genesis 17:7,8
7. God is good. The goodness of God is what disposes Him to be kind, benevolent, and full of good will toward all creation. Pray Psalm 119:65-72
8. God is love. God’s love is so great that He gave His only Son to bring us into fellowship with Him. God’s love not only encompasses the world, but embraces each of us personally and intimately. Pray 1 John 4:7-10
9. God is Jehovah-jireh. This name means “the God who provides.” Just as He provided yesterday, He will provide tomorrow. He grants deliverance from sin, the oil of joy for the ashes of sorrow, and eternal citizenship in His Kingdom. Pray Genesis 22:9-14
10. God is Jehovah-shalom. This name means “the God of peace.” God could never give to others a peace that exceeds understanding if He Himself were not perfect, unfailing peace. Pray Judges 6:16-24
11. God is immutable. All that God is, He has always been. All that He has been and is, He will ever be. He cannot change because He is perfect and will remain perfect. Pray Psalm 102:25-28
12. God is transcendent. We must not think of God as highest in an order of beings. This would be to grant Him eminence, even pre-eminence, but this is not enough. He is transcendent—existing beyond the created universe. Pray Psalm 113:4,5
13. God is just. God rules with absolute justice. Not fooled by appearances, God is fair, equitable, and impartial in all of His judgments. Pray Psalm 75:1-7
God is holy. God’s holiness is not simply the best we know made infinitely better. God is absolutely untainted. His holiness stands apart—unique and incomprehensible. Pray Revelation 4:8-11
14. God is Jehovah-Rapha. This name means “Jehovah heals.” God alone has the remedy for the healing of mankind. The Gospel is concerned with the physical, moral, and spiritual healing of all people. Pray Exodus 15:22-26
15. God is self-sufficient. He is the One who contains all, who gives all that is given, but who Himself can receive nothing that He has not first given. Pray Acts 17:24-28
16. God is omniscient. God knows all that can be known. His knowledge includes every possible thing that exists, has ever existed, or will ever exist. Pray Psalm 139:1-6
17. God is omnipresent. God is everywhere—close to everything, next to everyone. “‘Do not I fill heaven and earth?’ declares the Lord.” Pray Psalm 139:7-12
18. God is merciful. God’s compassion is infinite and inexhaustible. In the mercy of His provision in Christ, He took upon Himself the judgment that was due us. He waits and works now for all people everywhere to turn to Him, not wanting any to be lost. Pray Deuteronomy 4:29-31
19. God is sovereign. God is in control of our lives. His sovereignty is the attribute by which He rules His entire creation. To be sovereign, God must be all-knowing and all-powerful. Pray 1 Chronicles 29:11-13
20. God is Jehovah-Nissi. This name means “God our banner.” We may go from triumph to triumph and say, “Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ” Pray (1 Corinthians 15:57). Exodus 17:8-15
21. God is wise. All God’s acts are done in infinite wisdom. He always acts for our good, which is to conform us to Christ. Our good and His glory are inextricably bound together. Pray Proverbs 3:19,20
22. God is faithful. Our hope for the future rests upon God’s faithfulness. Because He is faithful, His covenants will stand and His promises will be honored. Pray Psalm 89:1-8
23. God is wrathful. God’s wrath is never capricious, self-indulgent, or irritable, as human anger often is. Instead, it is a right and necessary reaction to objective moral evil. Pray Nahum 1:2-8
24. God is full of grace. Grace is the good pleasure of God that inclines Him to grant merit where it is undeserved and to forgive debt that cannot be repaid. Pray Ephesians 1:5-8
25. God is our Comforter. Jesus called the Holy Spirit the “Comforter.” Paul writes that the Lord is “the God of all comfort.” Pray 2 Corinthians 1:3,4
26. God is El-Shaddai. This name means “God Almighty.” It is best understood as God who is all-sufficient and all-bountiful—the source of all blessings, fullness, and fruitfulness. Pray Genesis 49:22-26
27. God is Father. The Creator of the universe cares for each one of us as if we are the only child He has. Jesus taught us to pray, “Our Father” (Matthew 6:9). The Spirit of God taught us to cry, “Abba, Father,” as in the intimacy of the family. Pray Romans 8:15-17
28. God is the Church’s head. God the Son, Jesus, is the head of the Church. The head—as the part of the body that sees, hears, thinks, and decides—gives the orders that the rest of the body lives by. Pray Ephesians 1:22,23
29.God is our intercessor. Knowing our temptations, God the Son intercedes for us. He opens the doors for us to boldly ask Him for mercy. Thus, God is both the starting point and ending point of true prayer. Pray Hebrews 4:14-16
30.God is Jehovah Shammah. He is always there. He is there fore you in any trial and tribulation. Even when you think He is not. Because God cannot lie, believe His Promise of “I will never leave or forsake you”. Therefore, when it comes time to die and leave this world, you can trust He will be there to.
Pray John 14:1-3
