Elohim
God, the Mighty Creator · Genesis 1:1
The very first name of God in the Bible, Elohim is the God who speaks and worlds come to be. Plural in form yet one in being, it hints from the first verse at the fullness of the God later revealed as Father, Son, and Spirit. The world you stand in is the work of His word.
Know Him by this name
Read Genesis 1:1 on The Living Bread, ask Simon anything you wonder about, and pray to God as Elohim over whatever you carry today. To know His names is to know His heart. You are welcome exactly as you are.
