"Are We Living Out The Meaning Of Our Name? "Exodus 15:3; Jermiah 1:5 Phil. 2:9""
Praise The Lord To All.
What is your name? Do you know the
meaning of your name? Do you like the meaning of your name? Are you living out
the meaning of your name? God knew everyone of us, before we was conceived, as I
look into the perfect law of liberty, I see that the Lord is very much aware of
our names, He named Adam after Himself "son of God 1st Cor. 15:45," all
throughout the Bible one will see people living out there names. I am so glad we
have a way of escape from living out the meaning of some of the unpopular names
which some of us were given by our
parent's.
Many parent's, when deciding
a name for there child, are more caught up with the sound or look of a name,
than the meaning of the name's they have, or about to place upon the child. As
far as God is concern, He knew from the beginning what our names would be, let
us thank the Lord, who from the foundation of the world, had prepared a Lamb for
each and everyone of us who are willing to trade in there name's, to be
identified with that matchless name "Jesus Christ" Isaiah 7:14; 9:6-7; Mat.
1:21; Gal. 3:27; Acts 2:38; 4:12; 9:5; Rom.
8:15-18."
My first name is Anthony,
which means: Priceless, Praise Worthy.
My middle name is
Wilson, which means: Son of will.
My last name is Sanders,
which means: Helper of mankind.
I
must admit, that I like what I see regarding the name given me, but without
taken on that matchless name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ "St. John
3:5-7; Acts 1:8; 10:44-48, my name is unfulfilling "Eph. 1:4; Phil.
3:8."
I am the LORD:
that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to
graven images "Isaiah 42:8."
Here are
some supporting Scriptures concerning the meaning of names "Gen. 3:20; 4:25;
17:5; 17:15; 17:19; 25:30; 27:36; 30:11; 32:27-28; Mat. 1:21; Luke 1:31; 2:21,
and many more, so if you don't like your name or its meaning, or if you like
your name and its meaning, it carrys no weight with it what so ever, without the
NAME of names over shadowing it "Acts 2:36-40; 4:11-13; James
2:5."
I can now say it loud, I am
identified with JESUS CHRIST!
