Elohim – Mighty Creator

“God is Who He says He is.” ~ Beth Moore

The very first name God uses to introduce Himself to us is found, literally, in the beginning.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. -Genesis 1:1

The name God in this verse is actually the Hebrew name Elohim. In the traditional Jewish view, Elohim is the name for God as Creator and Judge of the universe.

Remembering that God is the Mighty Creator of the universe is very comforting to me. Looking around at His creation reminds me that He is in control, He is omnipotent, and there is nothing that comes into my life that He can’t take care of.  If He can make the mountains, the ocean, the sun, moon, stars, the entire universe and Heaven itself, He is powerful enough to take care of me and my family. No matter what!

Heavenly Father, You are the Almighty Creator of the universe. You made the heavens and the earth, and you made me in Your image. You love me and care for me more than I will ever understand until I get to heaven. There is nothing that happens to me or my loved ones that is too big for You to handle. Just as You had a plan for creation, You have a plan for me. Help me to trust You even when I can’t see the path You have created for me.
