Our God is the all powerful Almighty God. He is also a God of many names; he is still the same God, his many names simply portray his different attributes. When praying we need to remember who our God is and knowing the many names by which is is called can help us when specifically asking for something, for example, one of his names is Jehovah-Jirah meaning God our provider, when asking God to provide for you, you can use this name and thus remind God that he is provider.
Some other names to use for God in prayer are:
Jehovah- Rapha: The lord who heals
Jehovah-Tsidkenu- The Lord our Righteousness
Jehovah-M' Kaddesh- Lord our Sanctifier
Jehovah-Shammah- The Lord is There
Jehovah Shalom- The Lord our Peace
Jehovah-Nissi- The Lord our banner
El Roi- God who sees
El Shaddai- God almighty
Adoni- Lord, master
Jehovah-mekoddishkem- The Lord who sanctifies you
Jehovah-Saboath- The Lord of hosts
El Olam- The everlasting God
Jehovah-Raah- The lord my Shepherd
El Elyon- The most high God
Not only does his names carry power within them, they also stand as a way of giving us hope knowing that God has these qualities and can doubtlessly work the miracles we need. If we as Christian's loose faith in our master we have nothing. So keep on praying, keep seeking him, he loves you very much. If you have God, you have everything you need in your life!

Continue Having Faith in 2014
Today, I want to encourage you to continue having faith in God; 2013 may or may not have been a good year for you, in spite of the way things were 2014 can be even greater. Your God wants to do so many great things for you this year, you just have to believe in him knowing that he wants what is best for you.
Friends there is nothing God cannot do, he has done so many things for you in the past and he will continue to love you and do good things for you in your life. Yeah, this year will undoubtedly bring with it obstacles, worries and sorrow, but remember your God is bigger. He has:
- Allowed a 17 year old boy kill a giant with a slingshot
- Closed the mouth of lions
- Parted the red sea
- Gave Hannah, who was thought to be barren, a son
- Sent Ruth a husband
- Saved Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego from the 7 times hotter furnace
- Saved Saul on the road to Damascus
- Allowed Sarah to conceive in her old age
- Saved Jonah from the belly of a Whale
- Saved the Egyptians from Pharaoh
- Sent his only son to die for you so you could have redemption through him
This is only a small list of the wonderful things God has done, I do not have enough space to type all the amazing things God has done in the past nor do I have enough space to tell of the amazing miracles God can do!
God is fighting for you and he's not going to stop fighting for you this year or next year, in fact he will never stop fighting for you!
God loves you, have faith in him like David, Jonah, Hannah, Shadrach Mechach and Abednego, Moses, Jonah, Daniel; they put their trust in him and God moved mountains for them, he can do the same for you, the question is, will you let him?
