"Don't Let His Name Go Down. "Proverbs 18:10""

 
Praise The Lord To All.
 
Don't let His name go down, it was the purpose of God to make Himself known to His people from the beginning. His name was to be declared among the brethren. The secret of all ages was to be afterwards revealed. In Psalms of David it is declared, "Thou hast magnified Thy word above all Thy name." (Psalms 138-2.)
 
When Jacob wrestled with the Angel he sought to obtain the secret name, but was prohibited. The Angel in the burning bush was bearing the secret name, and when Moses sought to obtain the secret name, all he received was "I am that I AM." The children of Israel were led by the angel of the Lord and Jehovah said, "Beware of him....for my name is in him." (Exodus 23:21..)
 
To Manoah the Jehovah Angel replied, "Why askest thou after my NAME, seeing it is secret. (Judges 13:18.) The prophet Isaiah declared that His NAME shall be called WONDERFUL. (Isaiah 9:6.) From these scriptures it can be clearly seen that
Jehovah had a name to be revealed which was to be "above all His names."
 
There is not a shadow of a doubt, that the Angel that appeared to the Virgin in Nazareth was the Jehovah Angel of old who bore that "wonderful" name. It was there that He had finished His Journey over the hills of time and deposited that secret name in the bosom of her who was "highly favored of God." Mary pondered these thing in her heart and told no one the message of the Angel that she should forth a son and that his name should be called JESUS.
 
The Word was God from the beginning (St. John 1:1-4) and when the word became flesh, it was given a name that "is above every name," for He has "magnified His Word" above all His name. His name shall be called JESUS. What a wonderful word! All the titles that Jehovah ever bore are comprehended in this one name JESUS. The name of Jesus bears in it all the Lord's other name ever bore. Jesus is Elohim, the creator (Col. 1:16), Jehovah and Shaddai (Rev. 1:8), Eloah (Heb. 1:6), Elyon, the Most High (John 3:31; Eph. 4:6), in fact, all the attributes of God as are revealed by His names are all found in Jesus.
 
Thus in all things He is given pre-eminence, and a name that is above every name. On the Isle of Patmos He declares that He is the Lord which is, which was, and which is to come, the ALMIGHTY, ***the First and the Last. If He who appeared on the Isle of Patmos is the ALMIGHTY (Shaddai) (Rev. 1:8; Ex. 6:3), then the Almighty's new name is JESUS,  and He has magnified His Word above all His name. (John 1:1-14; Rev. 3:12.)
