The Names of God
Learn His names, one match at a time. Slower than the others, for a quiet morning. Learn a name of God, in its own script, then match it to the Scripture where it was first breathed, and keep it in your Book of Names with a note of when it became real to you.

How to play
- Open your Book of Names. It begins empty and fills one name at a time.
- Learn a name: its Hebrew or Greek script, its transliteration, its meaning.
- Choose where that name is revealed from a few Scripture references. Right or wrong, the true reference is shown.
- Write when this name became real to you, in a sentence or two. This note is yours.
- Keep it in your Book. Return on another morning for the next name.
A session, start to finish
Open your Book and it is empty. Learn one name: the script appears first, then the sound of it, then its meaning, then the question of where God first revealed it. Choose, read the answer, and write a line about when this name became real to you. Close the Book. Tomorrow morning there is another name. Nobody rushes this game; a Book with twelve names in it took twelve mornings, and it reads like a testimony.
The Scripture it stands on
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Psalm 9:10, King James Version
What it forms in you
Knowledge of God's character through His self-disclosure, held with the memory of your own life. The Book becomes a personal testimony, name by name.
Who it is for
Contemplative believers, morning readers, those walking through hard seasons who need a name to hold, and small groups studying the attributes of God.
A reflection
Those who know His name trust Him. Which name did you most need this year, and when did it stop being a word and become a place to stand?
