21 NAMES OF GOD – SEEING HIM THROUGH THE LENS OF COVENANT
A Key Time to Align our Hearts with the Promises of God

EL SHADDAI – God Almighty, The “All-Sufficient” One
FOUNDATION SCRIPTURE FOR OUR 21 DAY JOURNEY: It is of the LORD’s [YAHWEH’s] mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. (Lam. 3:22-23)
EL SHADDAI is considered by many to be “the covenant name of God”. God made everlasting covenant with Abram and revealed himself as the Almighty One. His “all sufficiency” is the nature by which He promises “to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us” (Eph 3:20). Our heavenly Father has reminded us throughout His word that He will bless those in covenant with Him, and “God is not a man that he should lie, nor a son of man that He should repent” (Numbers 23:19). May we be strengthened in our inner man today as we meditate upon His name EL SHADDAI being fully convinced in the “exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe” (Eph. 1:19). He is our God Almighty, our covenant keeping Father.

Genesis 17:1-4 And when Abram was ninety years and nine, the LORD [Yahweh] appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I AM the Almighty God [EL SHADDAI]; walk before me, and be thou perfect. And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. And Abram fell on his face: and God [Elohim] talked with him saying, As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
Psalm 91:1-2 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High [Elyon] Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty [SHADDAI]. I will say of the LORD [Yahweh], He is my refuge [Machseh] and my fortress [Metsuda]; my God [Elohim]; in Him will I trust.
Galatians 3:26-29 for ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus [Yeshua]. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye all are one in Christ Jesus [Yeshua]. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE.
