Reader Reviews
If you are looking for a devotional that points you to God, focuses you on who He is, look no further. This book revitalized my daily quiet time. Isn't the point of our quiet time, drawing near to God? What better way to get to know Him than to focus on His name, which shows us who He is. I have been using the book for over a month and many of the names of God come to mind as I begin my daily devotional, or through out the day. God is not some far off cosmic being, He is El-Shaddai, El-Elyon, Elohim, Jehovah - Jireh, and so much more as this book will show you. This is a book every Christian seeking to know who God is should have on their bookshelf. It will help you come to know God more intimately.
