More Than a Name Meredith Nezat

Today has not caught God off-guard. No matter the circumstance you find yourself in, He's already there and He already knows what will happen next. JJ Heller's new song, "You Already Know," reminds us of God's omniscience -- the attribute of God that means He is all-knowing.


 

 

Join me in exploring this attribute of God in Scripture this week.

This Week's Challenge
Meditate on God’s omniscience this week — we’ve only scratched the surface. Follow-up on the listing of Scriptures found in the show notes to read them for yourself in context. Perhaps even consider reading one of the outside resources I referenced to increase your understanding of the attributes of God.









 




 

 


 

Alpha & Omega means beginning and end. This means that God is everlasting and that no one is before Him and no one will be after Him. On this episode we see both God and Jesus called Alpha & Omega in the Book of Revelation.

Messiah means Anointed One. This means chosen by God to carry out God's purpose. On this episode we see when Jesus was first called the Messiah in John chapter one.
