Polytheists believe in multiple gods because of human limitation. It’s just too hard to conceive that one God could be all things. They have a god to bless grapes and wine, one god to bless fish, one god to bless childbirth, etc. One God with unlimited power and knowledge goes beyond what we can know in the natural.
That’s why there are so many names of God:
- Jehovah Jireh – the Lord our provider
- Jehovah Shalom – The Lord our peace
- Jehovah Nissi – The Lord our banner
- Jehovah Rapha – The Lord our healer
- Jehovah Tsid-Kenu – The Lord our Righteousness
- Jehovah Shammah – The Lord who is everywhere
- Jehovah Sabaoth – The Lord our protector
- Jehovah Raah – The Lord who leads us tenderly
- Abba
- Emmanuel
- King of Kings
- Lord of Lords
- Savior
- Alpha and Omega
- Lion of Judah
- Prince of Peace
- Lamb of God
- Bright and Morning Star
- Lily of the Valley
- Rose of Sharon
- Comforter
- Teacher
- Brother
- Friend
One God is everything that we need. He made sure that we were covered by His grace and power in every area of our lives. One true and living God. And the more we know Him, the more more infinite He becomes. He will always be everything to us, for eternity.
