The Lord is my strength and my song. He has given me victory. This is my God and I will praise him-my father’s God and I will exalt him! The Lord is a warrior; Yahweh is his name. -Exodus 15:2-3 (NLT)

YAHWEH IS HIS NAME

A poem and essay by ILMA

There is only one source of strength

He is the one who has his own son sent

He gives me victory when I need it badly

He is a warrior who continually protects me.

He is the Lord my God and I will praise him

I will exalt the Lord who faithfully redeems

Yahweh is his name and he is a warrior

He helps remove all bondages and barriers.

Many people take credit for their successes in life. This is one of the reasons why their victories don’t last long. They do not give God credit for fighting their battles and for blessings received. They think they can boast and glorify themselves for such conquests.  We need to give recognition where credit is due or else we are actually idolizing our own selves.

The bible says that the Lord is our strength and our song. He gives us victory. We ought to praise him for he is our God. He is a warrior who fights for all our battles. His name is Yahweh and he is there to protect us. He alone deserves praise and worship.

PRAYER

Lord, thank you for being my warrior.

REFLECTION

What did God give you that you took credit for?
