TRUSTING IN ADONAI ~ HE IS YOUR LORD

Lord is a deferential appellation or a title showing respect for a person or deity who has authority, control, or power over others; a master, chief, or ruler. ADONAI means "He is Your LORD"
The author of our study book (Trusting In The Names Of God) points out on page 123
"trusting in Adonai determines our purpose and direction in life."
She goes on to explain that Abram discovered Adonai as his Lord and Master when he asked in Genesis:
Genesis 15:2 “O Lord GOD, what will You give me, since I am childless, . . ."
"We can choose which ambitions to pursue, which master to serve, and which agendas to respond to. When Adonai is the one we follow, He is our motivation, our Master and our mentor. To serve the living God, we must say yes to His lordship in our lives. We need to trust in the name of Adonai. Who determines our decisions, who guides our actions, and who commands our obedience? His name is Adonai." ~ Catherine Martin , page 123 "Trusting In The Names Of God"
A related verse in Scripture is found in the book of Proverbs:
Proverbs 18:10 "The name of the LORD is a strong tower; The righteous runs into it and is safe."
Adonai is waiting for each of us to make that choice of making Him our LORD. Once He is truly the LORD of our life, the one who has authority, control, and power over us, the Master, Chief, and Ruler of our life, we will find peace knowing He is truly in control.
Listen to the words of this beautiful song today
Adonai ,
Tomorrow we will DRAW NEAR TO ADONAI.
