Elohim


Jeremiah exclaimed,
"Ah, Lord God!
Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by
Your great power and by Your outstretched arm!
Nothing is too difficult for You."
Jeremiah 32:17 (NASB)
The NIV uses the words "Sovereign Lord" in place of "Lord God."
That word Sovereign or God is translated from the Hebrew "Elohim."
It means, appropriately, Creator.
It also means Judge.
It is the God that Jeremiah realizes can do anything...afterall,
He created the universe!
He is the God that we should know,
who speaks from His inspired Word!
It is also the the Name used in Genesis 1:1.
"In the beginning God created..." (You might have guessed that!)
The Lord bless you and inspire you today!
